Profile

My name is Spencer Altus and I live in South Florida.  My passion of photography began when I was just seven years old when my Dad brought me to the world famous 12 Hours of Sebring.  I'm currently a computer science major at at The George Washington University in D.C.

As a photographer, I am always changing my perspective to see the world in a different way. By changing my perspective I can create interesting compositions. I enjoy automotive photography, motorsport photography and light painting. 

I am available for private photo shoots, auto racing and sporting events, private parties, and concerts. Currently, I am focusing on fine art and automotive photography.  (Click here to set up a shoot.) 

I hope you enjoy my work!
