Hello, I’m Rick Hannon, an audio field recordist and photographer living in northeast Ohio. At Evocative Sound and Visuals, I search out and record high-quality soundscapes and sound effects near and far. I invite you to look at and listen to my ever-growing eclectic body of work featuring soundscape albums, sound effect libraries and photography. Then head on over to my Stories blog, where I try to bring a little more insight into what I do.

As a former newspaper photojournalist who concentrated solely on visuals, I find myself smitten by sound in ways I never experienced before hitting the record button. Let me share my sound and visual passions with you.
