Derick Snow has been a still photographer for since 2003 and a videographer since 1997. In that time he has photographed, captured and adventured through more than five countries, including France, Ireland, The UK, Mexico, Canada and thirty of the United States.

Nature inspires, and the human form and it’s condition drive new artistic concepts in not only his photographs, but also in his other pursuits of painting, acting and audio production. In 2007 he produced the debut LP, Ezra Moon for the band he regularly painted with live on stage. In 2008 he hosted a well-received children’s show, “Quick Draw Derick,” in which he starred, wrote and produced. In 2009 he was given the auspicious title of “Best Local Artist” by the Urban Tulsa Weekly magazine. 2009 also saw him leaping onto the musical theatre stage as Smee, a lead character known as the greasy but loveable role in Cathy Rigby’s Peter Pan. Through so many artistic and business pursuits he has been afforded many great opportunities outside of the regular photographer’s markets. His work has been seen on such venues as Yahoo News, CosmoGirl magazine and in private exhibitions.

In his early days in television, Derick worked exclusively through a black and white monitor, training his mind with a strong sense of composition and design. The imaginations of contrast and shape allowed him to easily transition into still photography and still pushes his eye when he captures light and form. During his television career he was also able to work with lighting directors that had a part in classic shows of yesteryear (Hee Haw, Uncle Zeb, ect.) who taught him many valuable lessons on creative lighting design.

He resides in Tulsa with his lovely girlfriend and inspiration Samantha Woodruff. He is new to Model Mayhem and is eager to work with interesting spirits in an beautiful artistic way.
