Gordon Osmundson is primarily a self-taught photographer, his formal education includes an undergraduate degree in Business Administration and a Master of Landscape Architecture, both from the University of California at Berkeley.
An early interest in model railroading led Osmundson to an interest in the real thing. Borrowing a camera from his father, he soon made his first black and white prints in his father's darkroom. In addition to a shared photographic interest, the two work together in their shared profession as landscape architects.
Osmundson is best known for his exquisite detail work with trains. Describing himself as "Someone mechanically inclined; my interests are with machines and things industrial," Osmundson has "found that a photograph could be more than a direct representation of its subject; it could also be a study in light and abstract form."
