About
Evan Butterfield
I've always been surrounded by photography. My grandfather was a small-town professional photographer (he specialized in gauzy, hand-tinted portraits of Gladiolus Festival Queens and beaming local brides). He had a shingle hung in front of his house announcing "E.Butterfield Photography," so I come by the name honestly. My great-uncle was an photo analyst in WWII, and my father is a photographer for a suburban Chicago newspaper. In photography, I'm deeply involved in Steampunk, but I also do quite a bit of nature photography, particularly birds. In real life, I'm a recovering attorney and Director of a technical nonprofit association. I live with my husband in Long Beach, California, and a cat who sometimes supervises photo sessions.
