Travis Sherman was born in Hermosa Beach California where he was raised as a skateboarder and learned the fine art of running from the police and amateur photography. His primary inspiration in the field of photography came from the countless crazy situations he and his friends got into but never could remember.
Who would have known that a photography career could have been spawned from the words, ‘If we only had a camera last night!’
He proceeded to study photography from only the finest teachers that his community college had to offer, and this is where he learned the rules and structures of photography. This experience, however, could best be described as trivial because the rules of photography are something that Travis Sherman didn’t care for anyway. Due to this fact, his work has never been described as fashionable or commercial, but rather subversive and unprofitable. I’m sure he wouldn’t mind selling out though.

"i'm pretty predictable when it comes to posting photos...but yet, those who aren't are far more inspiring to me. sherman is one of those who inspires...regardless if it's just a snapshot or a well thought-out cross-processed piece of brilliance."

"Travis and I used to spend every Christmas together until I lost both legs in a freak Cross-Stitching accident.
Since then, he's helped me to get gigs in "Born On The 4th Of July The Musical" and a guest appearance on "The Bold And The Beautiful" as Dylan, the body surfing coach to Stephanie Forrester.
I like his pictures so much I went To Vancover to hold a Flickr Rally in his honour. He never showed up. We haven't talked since."10th December, 2007

Travis is a sweetie and his pictures are always so refreshing and they sure pack a punch.

It never ceases to impress me."21st May, 2007

"Travis has taught me so much, well not so much about photography - but he has shown me how to drink until I almost die, that I AM small enough to fit on the floor of a filthy Chicago cab, the fine art of running from the cops, and a vast appreciation for Starbucks coffee, tattoos, and billiards. He also lets me take his picture...but he takes better pictures - clearly.
I love Travis, we slept beneath a parachute once, he makes me laugh my ass off constantly, and he's always got my back. OH! And he got me a whole chocolate cake once...it was HUGE...yummy! xxx"22nd March, 2007

"in 2003, somehow i ended up in sk8rsherman's fotolog. i was amazed by his photos after going through it all more than once. his photographs was inspiration for me to start. i remember the "wax your boards" photo and it takes me into the photo, scrappin' my board. it feels just like. between all photographers in flickr, he's the one i admire most with his own, creative, colorful, SICK style. thanks for showing me the photography world and takin' me into it.
peace"17th September, 2006

""Travis Y Natalia are soul mates, his pictures are full of energy from
the colors and movemnt he receives in his camera. I like to read comment on each others flickr, that´s pretty funny.
They cannot hide the love that they feel for each other.
When Travis takes pictures of Natalia the image is sure incomparable,
sensual, very fresh and full of energy, in addition to the colors.
Travis and Nata are the coolest couple on Flickr.""26th January, 2006
