About StormStock
At just 12 years old, StormStock founder Martin Lisius began photographing lightning through the kitchen window of his Texas home with a Kodak rangefinder camera. That early fascination with the sky’s power sparked a lifelong passion that would lead to the creation of StormStock, the world’s most respected source for weather and climate stock footage. Today, StormStock is recognized globally for its breathtaking, cinematic visuals of storms, lightning, and atmospheric events—providing filmmakers and producers with the highest-quality weather and climate footage available anywhere.
