The Image Makers Studio

110 Crimson Ridge

Tyrone, Ga. 30290

I have an education in commercial art and began my photography career

with a three-year stint as a photographer for the McCrory Corp starting in

1966.

I then worked for Print-O-Stat for 13 years in the graphic arts department

as an artist, cameraman, graphics designer and photographer.

I managed the microfilm department for Print-O-Stat for three years.

In 1981 I started The Image Makers Studio by photographing weddings,

portraits and local fashion models. My work has been published in several

magazines. I have experience with large format, medium format and

35mm film cameras as well as digital cameras. I have experience in film

developing color and black and white and for more than 13 years

processed and printed all the studios clients prints from wallet size through

16x20 as well as printing for other local photographers.

Several local radio stations used the Image Makers Studio for

photographing visiting celebrities. Over the years I have had the

opportunity to photograph B.B. King, Reba McEntire, Wayne Newton,

Conway Twitty, George Jones, Vern Gosdon, and others. After 18 years in

south central Pennsylvania, the studio had grown to three full time

employees and five part-time photographers with an in-house color

processing lab. I decided to move south to enjoy the warmer weather and

be closer to family relocating the studio in the wonderful town of Tyrone,

Georgia. I currently continue to focus on high-quality, creative digital

wedding and portrait photography..
