biography
Beth Wold
Beth Wold is a fine art photographer whose work centers on the beauty of wild places and wild things. Working primarily in black and white, she creates images that emphasize restraint, atmosphere, and form—inviting prolonged looking rather than immediate spectacle.
Her photographs explore moments of stillness within vast or elemental landscapes, using light, line, and negative space to shape emotional presence as much as visual clarity. Rooted in both wildlife photography and formal fine art practice, her work balances observation with intention, distilling complexity into composed, minimal frames.
Wold holds an MFA from the University of North Dakota. Her work has been collected and exhibited internationally, with pieces held in private collections across six continents. She continues to develop cohesive bodies of work that examine solitude, scale, and the human impulse to find meaning within the natural world.
