James Williams Photography Sharing my experiences in photography, the photos I have captured and the adventures I have embraced.

I’m Jim — a self-taught photographer with a love for capturing the quiet, honest beauty of the world around me. From the stillness of Northwoods forests to the spontaneous moments on the road, I use photography to slow down, look closer, and tell real stories. Nature, landscapes, everyday light — that’s where I find inspiration. My work is rooted in the belief that there’s magic in the details, wh

ether it’s the curve of a fern or the light bouncing off a creek.

📍 Based in northern Wisconsin, but my camera goes wherever life takes me.

Waited all morning for the rain to finally quit, then headed out to Wisconsin Point right in the middle of the day. ☁️ No golden hour, no magical sunrise—just me, the clouds, and Lake Superior still trying to blow me sideways.
The lighthouse was doing its usual thing: standing proud like it wasn’t bothered one bit by the moody skies and leftover drizzle. Meanwhile, I’m out there dodging puddles, hoping the wind doesn’t make me part of the lake, and trying to convince myself that ‘overcast’ is just nature’s way of providing free softbox lighting. 😂
Sure, it wasn’t the classic postcard scene—but there’s something about that stubborn, stormy vibe that fits this place perfectly. Sometimes you just take what Superior gives you and roll with it.

🌿✨ Got out to Patterson Park today here in Wisconsin. The waterfall was flowing strong after the recent rain, and I even found some lush ferns tucked away in the woods. Sometimes the best adventures are right in your backyard!

📸 Always love chasing waterfalls and the little details nature hides for us.

Yesterday was classic Duluth — gray skies, drizzle on repeat, and me playing tag with raindrops just to get some shots ☔😂. Caught the Canal Park lighthouse, the lift bridge, and even made it over to Patterson Park for a waterfall moment. Totally worth the soggy shoes!

Grand Forks has a way of blending quiet charm with hidden beauty. The old buildings carry stories in their bricks, the bridge connects more than just two sides of a river, and one sunflower demanded the spotlight — color against a world of black and white. Sometimes the smallest details bring the whole scene to life. 🌻🖤

I’ve been rocking KETL Mountain gear for the last few years and I’m officially hooked — my closet is basically a KETL showroom at this point. 😎 Their quality is absolutely top-notch, and I love knowing they stand behind their gear with a lifetime repair program (because let’s be real… I don’t always baby my clothes on adventures).

If you haven’t checked them out yet, do yourself a favor — durable, comfortable, and built for people who spend more time outside than inside. And if you see me out there head-to-toe in KETL, just know… it’s not an addiction, it’s a lifestyle. 😅

Big props to KETL Mountain for making gear that keeps up with me (and fixes it when I push it too far).

I finally made it out after a long stretch of recovery, and found myself drawn to the quiet beauty of the forest floor — fresh ferns, filtered light, and the soft sound of the creek below. No big adventure, just a moment that reminded me why I love photography.

Went chasing waterfalls today—sorry TLC, I had to. 😅
Took a little nature escape to Amnicon Falls and wow... totally worth the bug bites and the questionable balance I displayed on some very slippery rocks. 🪵💦

I brought my camera along and got a mix of shots—some macro details that made me feel like a nature documentary filmmaker (minus the voiceover), a classic waterfall photo because how could you not?, and this wooden path that made me feel like I was about to meet a woodland creature with life advice.

There’s just something about getting out into the woods, just rushing water, birds doing their thing, and me trying to look majestic while tripping over tree roots.

Anyway, here’s a little glimpse of what I saw today. Hope it brings you a breath of fresh air too. 🌲📷

Last night, I took a little walk through the town of Superior with my Fujifilm XT3 camera just as the sun was setting. The golden light spilling over the old buildings gave the town such a timeless feel – like stepping back in time.

I decided to capture that nostalgic vibe with some black-and-white vintage shots. There’s something about blending the evening glow with a classic look that really brings out the charm of Superior.

Hope you enjoy these moments as much as I enjoyed capturing them! 📷✨

Back at it!
After some time off healing my foot, I’m finally back out doing what I love—taking photos again. This morning, I woke up to fog and couldn’t resist grabbing my camera and heading out. I visited Wisconsin Point, Superior, and Canal Park, soaking in the atmosphere and looking for those moody moments to capture.

I was really feeling the dramatic black-and-white vibe today. Here are a few of the shots—so good to be back behind the lens!

Braving the cold for a sunrise like this ❄️🌅 -15°F at Canal Park, but the lighthouse stands strong against the icy winds. A breathtaking start to the day in the heart of winter.
