FINE ART NATURE PHOTOGRAPHY, PHOTO BOOKS & PHOTO SERVICES
See the photography pages of this site for more information. I consider myself primarily a fine art nature photographer and I do not do weddings! I sometime shoot church activities, mission trips, etc. I am no longer in any local galleries and no longer do Arts & Crafts Fairs, but I have a lot of inventory left of matted photos that you can have cheap! You can come by my house & thumb through the hundreds of choices. Email or phone 615-780-3898
I love to create photo books for people using MyPublisher.com software. I will make photo books for you with your digital photos which you provide on a disk or other digital format. I will have to charge extra for scanning photos not already digital. Email me for a link to some of my photo books you can view online.
I can also help you with copy and printing of old family history photos with minimal restoration work and I do great creative scrapbooks!
