Night Time Photos

I had the opportunity to take spend the evening with another photographer in Seattle taking night shots.  We spent the time taking skyline pictures of Seattle, light painting at the Seattle Center and finishing the evening with the opportunity to take pictures of the Seattle Ferris Wheel on the waterfront.  It was an amazing evening.  Here's some of my favorites.

Preserving the Past

I have always loved history and I try to learn from it. I have been fortunate to have several recorded histories of various family members.  But I haven't always appreciated the stories.  My grandfather use to tell a story about a lavender rose, over and over.  Being very young at the time, I started to tune him out when he would tell his story.  Unfortunately now, I don't remember it and I wish I could remember it so I could pass the story onto my children.

While I may not remember some of the stories, I enjoy helping other preserve their histories and pictures.  Sometimes pictures are damaged and the damage is so severe, the pictures are often thrown away.  But at times, the pictures can be restored and brought to life, to be able to pass onto another generation.

Before




This is one picture that was almost thrown away because it had been torn in half and taped together. After some work, I was able to bring it back. There is nothing like seeing the look on someone's face when they realize a cherished photo  If you have any photos you want restored, contact me at cherisphotos10@gmail.com for a quote.  I'll be sharing more before and after pictures in upcoming days.
