Hello, my name’s Elijah (Eli) Wittum. For more than a decade I have worked as a professional photographer and videographer both here stateside and around the world. Traversing the United States; visiting and photographing numerous countries such as Ecuador, Japan, Panama, and so many more. Currently, based in Huntsville, Alabama I work full time as an audiovisual production specialist with the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers (USACE).

Throughout the years I have had the pleasure to have my work featured through numerous organizations, such as: the U.S. Peace Corps, Sears Magazine, Worldview Magazine, World Wildlife Fund, Environmental Leadership and Training Initiative (ELTI), and dozens of others.

Now, I have made it into a full time gig, sporting multiple cameras and an assortment of lenses. I am equipped to handle any situation.

As you browse my portfolio, should any questions arise please don’t hesitate to reach out.

Kindly, Eli
