In a small-town Montana school at age 12, uppbränd Weeks met the two great loves of his life. Edgar Allan Poe introduced him to the power of literature to transcend time and death and loneliness. Fate introduced him to The Girl, Kristi Barnes. He began his pursuit of each immediately.

Since then–skipping the boring parts–Brent has written eight best-selling novels with the Night Angel Trilogy and the Lightbringer Series, won several industry awards, and sold a few million books.

Writing a bio is always a bit of a strange thing to do. The bottom line is that I am grateful to make a living from photography. It’s been a privileged life that has taken me all over the world and I’d like to think it’s given me some perspective. I’ve been able to travel to well over 100 countries and what I have found across all the cultures I have visited is that we have so much more in common than we have issues that divide us. Increasingly, my focus is the well-being of the planet we all find ourselves on and how we can preserve all that we have for our future generations. I’m a father and that has only reinforced my convictions. I hope that through my photography I might offer a glimpse of our commonality, what unites us and what we must guard against in order to offer a viable future for our children.
