During a 40 plus year career he performed his photochoreography with close to 200 symphony orchestras in the US, Canada, Mexico, Europe and Asia. Westwater performed with The Cleveland Orchestra, The Toronto Symphony, Royal Scottish National Orchestra, Royal Liverpool Philharmonic, The National Symphony Orchestra, Saint Paul Chamber Orchestra and the major symphony orchestras of Saint Louis, Dallas, Pittsburgh, Cincinnati, Vancouver BC, Detroit, Columbus, Indianapolis, Baltimore, Houston, Milwaukee, Minneapolis, Seattle, Salt Lake City, Rochester, Denver, Phoenix and Tucson, plus the Singapore Chinese Orchestra and well over a hundred other symphony and chamber orchestras.

Dr. Westwater served as the Chevron Concert Artist for eight years performing his pieces of photochoreography with orchestras while authoring an award winning book of his photography. He now devotes energy to photographing and sharing the beauty and wonder of Mother Earth and leading an environmental organization helping to conserve and protect her. He is also focused on mitigating climate change, promoting Kindness and ending poverty.
