For over 35 years, Bob Lambert has been at the heart of recording the changes to this special place we call Happy Valley. He has specialized in fine art, portrait, and wedding photography in and around State College since 1985. His work documents the area's transformation from a quiet small town to the vibrant community that we know and love today.

As a Penn State alumni and State College native, Bob has a deep connection to the area, which inspires the personal touch that defines his photos. Channeling his passion for his hometown, he has developed a vast collection of classic images that include the historic views of the Penn State elm trees in all their glory. These one-of-a-kind elm photos provide a snapshot of an iconic landscape that resonates across generations of Penn State graduates. His connection to Central Pennsylvania helps him capture what's truly unique about State College and its most recognized landmarks.

Bob's work has been featured at the nationally renowned Central Pennsylvania Festival of the Arts for over 30 years, as well as in local and national publications. His commissioned photos are displayed in many local businesses, galleries, and homes all over the world.

He continues to build on his exclusive collection of local images, evolving together with the State College community, to share his vision of this special place and the memories that it evokes.
