Wade Shoemaker

Whether it’s photos or firearms, Wade Shoemaker is known for his keen eye and sharp shooting. You’d be hard-pressed to find someone happier to be waist-deep in flooded woods on the hunt for waterfowl, all the while authentically documenting the highs and lows of the pursuit. Wade is a native Louisianan and family man to the core, raising two boys alongside his wife in their North-Central Louisiana home.
