2025 Featured Artist Lee Perry says, “Being a Nature & Wildlife photographer has meant one thing for me, there is always beauty in nature, all you have to do is look for it!”.

Lee has spent most of his life in Michigan’s Upper Peninsula. The first 20 years he lived In L’Anse Michigan which is where he started his Nature and Wildlife photography and in 1993 he started his photography business. Lee has photographed Nature and Wildlife around Lake Superior and beyond. In 1998 he moved to Hancock Michigan which brought him closer to the Keweenaw Peninsula and all of the beauty that it holds. Even though he has traveled and photographed across the United States the Keweenaw Peninsula is still his favorite place. Lee says “after almost 50 years of doing Nature and Wildlife photography there is still so much of the Upper Peninsula and the Keweenaw that I haven’t seen or photographed so the journey continues!!”
