Not much to say, but I do enjoy helping people, and I know how important it is to the heart, to see the final resting place of an ancestor, and to envision the other family members being there, the day of burial.. I am also a professional radiographer/technologist, so that helps my passion for photography. And my photos are not touched-up so to speak, and never with borders. (borders meaning only the headstone and its borders are showing) .I try to keep the nature in the grave photo.. A fallen leaf, a sprig of grass, a pinecone. I just sweep away the dirt so that you can see the names, but other than that, I try to assure you a connection, when you view the photo, as if you were right there with me the day that I took the photo..
I have now extended my findagrave search to 30 miles or more so that I can offer my services beyond just locally.. I not only like to drive, but I like to discover new Memorial Parks and I take my searching very seriously.. Starting early in the morning, just as the day is beginning, gives me a "sense of well being" and a clear state of mind for the challenges ahead of my searching.
I have now started to take a 2nd photo of the surrounding area because I feel that the headstone is just kind of lonely without showing where exactly your loved ones truly rest.
