In recent weeks, I've had a hectic schedule and realized I'd been too focused on computer work, neglecting my true passion for photography. I've found that my creativity thrives when I follow my instincts, impulsively deciding to seize photographic opportunities. I've accumulated a nice collection in the last few weeks from Mount Rainier, Tacoma, Cannon Beach, and more. Below, I'm offering a sneak peek at some of my favorite initial shots, each with its own unique story and visual appeal. 

Sahale Peak is known for some of the best views in North Cascades National Park. I was looking forward to both the climbing and the photography.

Every now and then I look through old photos. I always find some that bring back good memories.

Some of my favorite shots from 2022.

I'm excited to announce that I'm offering several new gift products. Now, besides getting fine art prints on metal, canvas, wood, acrylic and fine paper, you can grab a coffee cup, a puzzle, a phone case, and more!

A weekend backpacking at Mount Rainier. View from a river, Marine memorial, some cool rock formations, another river, and a glorious sunset.

A live art show from my own backyard!

Two weeks ago I had a fun backpacking trip to Mount Adams. It was a spectacular campsite, with grand views of Mount Rainier.

My work is available on metal, canvas, acrylic, wood, fine art paper, and standard paper. This week, I'm going to tell you about luxurious metal prints.

I'm excited to have two prints hanging at Cannon Beach Gallery through July 22nd

I won two awards in the Tahoma Gallery photo show with the Tacoma Mountaineers!

Prints (canvas, metal, acrylic, wood, and archival paper). Merchandise. Limited editions. 

Terrible Tilly, the lighthouse off the Oregon Coast is for sale, and I've decided to purchase it.

Locals who live around Mount Rainier have a question always top of mind -- "is The Mountain out?" Even after a lifetime of living in the area, I often have my breath taken away when She shows herself.

Have you visited Mount Rainier in the winter? Go, go, go if you can!

Calm, Majestic, Hopeful, Serene, Grandiose…The Mountain. Or more appropriately, and more simply, Tahoma.

Hi there, I have a lot of new followers, so I thought I should do a little Q&A to tell you a something about myself. I'm Troy Mason, a mountaineer, hiker, and landscape photographer from Tacoma, Washington. I usually make images of mountain landscapes (Mount Rainier!), ocean seascapes (Cannon Beach/Puget Sound!), and urban cityscapes (Tacoma/Seattle!).

I spent last week in Bozeman, Montana, on a much needed break. It was great to shake off the dust and spend some time climbing in Hyalite Canyon

Holy Rosary in Tacoma, Washington. Nothing is crisp, it's all a bit blurry and uncertain --- much like the fate of this gorgeous historic building.

These images are more than just a building, clouds, and grass. To me, they're the history of Tacoma, the history of my family. Summed up in black and white images, but detailed via a father and son talking about life, over a couple resurrected beers.

Utterly alone on the side of The Mountain, listening to the wind, drinking coffee. I’ll remember this moment for the rest of my life.

An image in the hand is worth two in the bush

2020 was tough for all of us. I had photo shows and events canceled, hikes and climbs canceled, vacations put off. But it was still a good year, and I'm thankful for my family, health, and happiness. Click through to read about some things I was able to do...

See photos and read the narrative from The Front Steps Project, in which I took family portraits – at the client’s home, from the yard, observing social distancing rules – in exchange for a monetary donation to charity. In about a month and with generous donations of the families, about $1,500 was raised for Nourish Pierce County. It was an awesome, rewarding experience!

I've decided to take part in The Front Steps Project, as a way to give back to my city of Tacoma, Washington. I'm hoping to bring a little joy to my neighborhood, and also to raise money for those less fortunate or in a tough situation, I will volunteer my talents and produce a professional portrait in exchange for a donation to one of my favorite charities, Nourish Pierce County.

My final image often looks vastly different than the original. This isn't due to technology. This has often been the case with photographers going back decades!

I've been working hard to expand my photography business and have just launched this website. I'm celebrating with a giveaway and a special launch promotion.
