Hanspeter Hunziker was born in a small picturesque town in Switzerland. He inherited his father's love for nature. There was rarely a Sunday when the family of seven couldn't be found hiking in the Swiss mountains and forests. At a young age Hanspeter figured out how he could freeze and record all that beauty: by taking photographs. He discovered how much joy it gave him to work with a camera, his first one being a small Exakta.

Although he then chose a career in computers he never gave up on photography. He traveled widely in North Africa and the Mediterranean and part of the fun was always bringing home good pictures. To enhance his technique and sense for seeing and composition he attended seminars and courses.

After coming to the United States in 1989 Hanspeter and his wife traveled mainly in the Southwest and in Hawaii. His work has been exhibited at the Costa Mesa Showcase Gallery where he was featured artist of the month. He sold fine art photography in stores and his pictures were chosen for business brochures. His work also appeared in various calendars in Switzerland.

Today Hanspeter lives in Switzerland. He works with Nikon equipment and shoots 100% digital. Photoshop Elements is his preferred software and he also teaches classes on PE and digtal SLRs.
