ABOUT JIM
In my earlier years, (over 35 years ago) when I first entered the photographic industry, film was the medium I employed to capture my images using a variety of film cameras in both 35mm and 6x7mm format.
​
With the advent of digital Photography in the mid 1990s, I became very interested in the creative possibilities it afforded me. As a consequence and after a very short time, I started using only digital equipment and am still to this day very excited about the strengths and flexibility that this medium affords the photographic artist.
​
As I became more involve with the digital arena, of necessity, I developed my skills with Photoshop and the image processing venue. So much so that it eventually became the dominant aspect in my business.
Around 2006, I closed my photo studio, and started a whole new career in the graphic design, marketing and advertising venue, (MIRAMICHI ADS) providing advertising to local businesses on placemats that are used by serval local restaurants.
​
Around that point in time, I ceased from doing domestic photography and commercial photography. (weddings, graduates, child & pet portraits as well as passports & ID photos etc.).
​
I did however continue to use photography as a support medium in my advertising and graphic design interests, providing services such as business portraits and the occasional commercial photo assignment.
In addition to the placemat enterprise, I now also develop and provide mobile landing pages as an extension and support feature for the placemat advertisements.
​
I should mention that I continue to provide services related to and including photo restoration, alteration, coloration and compilation when requested.
​
On this website I have included sample images of some of the captured images created during the studio days, as well as a short video containing some of my photo restoration accomplishments. I have also installed a gallery page containing samples of what I call my creative images. These are images that I have captured or created for the fun of it and to share with anyone who might be interested.
