Robert E. Moen, a lifelong resident of the Jersey Shore, is a minister at a small congregation near Farmingdale, NJ, in addition to having pursued a career in the communications industry, which has spanned over a quarter of a century.

Having bought his first 35mm SLR in 1994 (used, of course), he has since accumulated a sizeable library of colour transparencies depicting the beauty of the natural world in all of its aspects, as well as a modest collection of fine art black and white photographs, which he prints himself. He also now shoots in all formats, as is appropriate for each subject.

Several of his Black and White and Colour prints have won competitions, appeared in international publications, and have been displayed in small galleries on the Jersey Shore. He is particularly proud of the photographic contributions he has been privileged to provide for use by nature preservation organizations, such as The Nature Conservancy and the Southern Utah Wilderness Alliance. His work is displayed regularly at the Anchor & Palette Gallery.
