One can’t spend a life outdoors loving nature without building a passion for showing it to other people, and this is what Nancy’s photography is all about. She’s traveled the world, lived in Turkey as a child, hiked the trails of Yosemite and Zion, Glacier and Banff and let it all soak in. What comes out after all these experiences are the tasty details of nature most might miss. Her photos are all about brief moments of contact, when her camera and nature’s singular moments come together.

Nancy has painted and photographed nature for decades. She also weaves and has a six-harness floor loom especially beloved by her cats that think it’s a trampoline.

Her Port Townsend garden, surrounded by thick forest and meadow, is home to many birds and animals, and for years Nancy has worked to create a safe haven for them. No dogs or cats intrude outside here - and the wildlife have become friends and family to her. It’s not unusual for her gaze out the windows to be returned by a coyote, bobcat or buck – sometimes at very close range.

For the past 15 years, Nancy has also been managing and expanding Estuary Press, the publishing company for husband and painter, Larry Eifert. She wholesales to many National and State Park stores, manages license agreements so national chains like Barnes and Noble, Target and Fred Meyers can sell Eifert products, creates portfolios for new park mural projects and attends trade shows for National Park clients.

An important part of this is to travel to some of the best wild places in America and beyond to research for Larry’s murals. This calls for intensive field observations, and this is where Nancy’s camera is always participating.

It’s a way of life that is expressed by her sensitive and perceptive photography.
