John O. Dixon, Photographer, and owner of “Life to Lens Photography”, was the official photographer for the 50th Wheelmen Meet that was held in West Chester, PA. This is the second time that Mr. Dixon has been chosen to be the official photographer of one of our Annual Meets, and he was chosen because of the excellent job he does in covering our Meets.

The 2017 Meet marked the 50th Anniversary of our organization and it also highlighted the Founder’s Ride on which 8 person’s riding on 1880s high wheel bikes decided the organizational details on which The Wheelmen was based: this ride took place in the area near West Chester The special challenge for Mr. Dixon on this occasion was to capture the essence of the Founder’s Ride in the enthusiasm for old bicycles by today’s Wheelmen who assembled for the 2017 Annual National Wheelmen Meet. Mr. Dixon demonstrated patience and creativity in getting our large crowd arranged for a memorable group photo, and for many pictures of the activities that took place at this meet.

I can recommend Mr. Dixon for photographing large complex events without reservation.


John Dixon I have a photography business, worked in cycling industry, shoot some Freelance Photography for a local paper. I photograph weddings, architecture, landscapes, water scenes, nature, portraits, an occasional fashion show and exhibit a few pieces in a gallery exhibit from time to time. I have three beautiful daughters and rather enjoy being a dad. I’ve been involved in photography for 30 years or more, worked in camera shops, published in both newspapers and magazines. My work has been displayed in shows, ads, hung in office buildings, including several pieces displayed at the House of Delegates in Annapolis. I’m an avid cyclist, road, mountain, some cyclocross, a much younger me some BMX. I worked in the Cycling industry for 20 years or more, as a mechanic at local bike shops, some buying, bike fit, and managerial positions. Photographers Vision: I believe every photo either has or portrays a personality, mood, or an emotion to be discovered. The image should stir some emotion through detail, complexity, simplicity, or possibly desire. Every individual will view my work and react to it differently. Whatever viewing brings about, just be willing to take the time to look. John Dixon Photography, LLC - Owner/Operator
