Forever Moments Photos Mission Statement

Started as a wedding photographer in the early 70's part time for a florist. Some years later I opened my own studio in Chicago. Soon I hired several additional photographers, and the wedding business was flourishing. One day when I went to open the studio, I found that everything was gone. Down to the pens on the counter. It's a long story and I don't need to go there. Needless to say, it was devastating to me and my family. I teamed up with another studio and fulfilled my contracts. I could not disappoint people on their wedding day. After that I went on to other endeavors. All through the years, I have had a camera in my hands always taking portraits at graduations, family gaterings, parties and yes even weddings. In keeping up with the technology, I decided to enter the field again several years ago and loving it. My Mission/Pledge Is to keep my clients happy and provide the utmost quality of work and products available. I can say this because I am certified in photography lighting technics and have numerous certificates in computer technology, networking, and photo retouching.

In our early days of being a wedding photographer, photos were taken with a 35mm film camera. Back then, a photographer had to know the type of film, certain camera settings and usually had only one camera and one type of lens. The film went to a specialized lab where they made slight adjustments such as color balance, cropping and the photos looked good but somehow seemed to be all the same which was the industry norm at that time. The photographer of today needs to know all the above, and a whole lot more. ISO settings, shutter speeds, F Stops, composition, lens selection, focal length, white balanced and especially lighting techniques just to name a few. Also, of vital importance is knowing 3 to 4 computer programs to give you the memories that will last a lifetime. These memories are "Frozen in Time". All this takes years of training to give you the best possible product that you will be able to look back on, to bring a smile to your face along with a tear of joy knowing that you have these memories "Frozen in Time" to look back on. That's why,

Forever Moments Photos takes pride in supplying the best possible product, so for years to come, you will have theses treasured memories
