About Thomas Strickland

Photography: The best way to show people how you perceive the world.

I started taking pictures in my freshman year of high school for my swim team. This quickly led to editing videos (albeit very basic ones) at the end of every season with those same pictures. By the time I graduated, I had taken roughly 2,000 with a ten-year-old Nikon D50 my parents had lent me. I took that same camera and lens to university, where I found a new passion.

In 2014 I joined a team at Florida Atlantic University called Owls Racing Formula SAE. Through this amazing opportunity to build a one-of-a-kind racecar every year, I found another passion that I unknowingly started before joining the team. I found that by taking pictures of the car, I was also taking pictures of people and how they went about working on their passion. I quickly became in charge of all the team's PR and social media material through 2017. My primary camera was a Nikon D7000 with a few crop lenses.

I transferred to the University of North Florida in 2017 to finish my engineering degree. While there, I found my way to Osprey Racing, a rival of FAU. I took over their PR and brakes teams until graduation in 2019.

In 2022, my dad gave me his old D800, a 36mp full-frame camera. This is my current workhorse with the TAMRON 70-200 f/2.8 and NIKKOR 28-300mm f/3.5-5.6 being my go-to lenses.

This website is an archive of my photographic career. You can go all the way back to 2015 to see my work on the D50 (long retired now) to the most recent Rolex 24 Hours race.

So thank you for checking out my website. I hope you enjoy seeing the world the way I do.
