BEHIND THE LENS
Award-winning photographer Robert Wicker was born in Melbourne, Florida in 1966.
At a young age Robert knew he wanted to be a photographer as he followed his fathers guidance and teaching. At 10 years old he had his first SLR Camera and by the age of 15 he was shooting his first commercial job.
The love grew more and more and Robert decided to make it a career and enrolled in Brevard Community College in photographic technology. Robert soon took a job at a large photography lab in Rockledge, Fl and moved on to work with a commercial photographer and a commercial lab before opening his own studio in West Melbourne in 1989. That same year Robert had his first image published internationally.
