The Cannon Beach History Center & Museum opened their latest art exhibit featuring the talents of local photographer extraordinaire, Kyle Genin recently.

View the incredible imagery of Cannon Beach and the Oregon coast taken from Genin’s point of view as he captures the wonder of this beautiful coastal town.

Kyle Genin is a Cannon Beach-based nature and travel photographer. Born in Tacoma, WA, Kyle spent his childhood in Puyallup and Chehalis, WA, and received his first camera when he was 13 years old. Photography classes and a few Ansel Adams’ prints later, he graduated to Olympus and Canon cameras and hasn’t looked back (unless for a great capture.)

He has lived on the North Coast of Oregon for the past ten years – after living here previously for nine years in his early career. He remains enamored by the beauty found here, as well as the solace and contentment provided by his daily walks on the beach, which deliver an ever-changing panorama of colors, textures, and unexpected surprises. As a lover of travel, Kyle draws inspiration from the history and architecture of other countries.

He also enjoys using social media to share the beauty of our world, a passion that grows stronger with each new adventure. Italy’s Florence is his favorite international destination for photography. Kyle can most often be found on the beach, but you can also find him on Facebook and Instagram at @KyleGPics. Kyle hopes his images help his audience feel the transformative power of travel, and ignite a shared sense of wonder, discovery, and reverence for nature.

Capturing the Wonder: A Photography Exhibition by Kyle Genin will be on display through October 14th.
