About Archer Imaging Photography
I have worked in the photo industry, in the Washington DC area, for over 30 years. During that time I have worked for some of the largest camera stores in the area. My work included helping the professional, amateur, and “weekend warrior” photographer to carefully select and knowledgeably use photographic equipment. I am well versed in the major DSLR cameras, including medium format digital cameras. I am also experienced in large format and high-speed event printers.
I have worked with all branches of the military training their personnel in the use of digital cameras, printers and color management. My work with the military included traveling throughout the US installing and configuring digital cameras, printers and software.
I have worked with Federal and Local government agencies and corporations training individuals and groups in the use of digital cameras, scanners, printers and color management in order to optimize their digital workflow. I have also worked with Federal and State Law Enforcement agencies teaching introductory and advanced digital imaging.
I received my first camera, a Kodak Brownie Fiesta, at age seven while living overseas in Taiwan. Since that time my passion for photography has never waned, as I became the family documentarian and was encouraged by my dads’ enthusiasm for photography.
In college I majored in Biology; studying such subjects as Botany, Ecology, Algae and Mycology. I have a strong connection with the natural world and enjoy hiking, biking, and camping. My first love has always been photography. I have chosen to combine the best of both worlds and have been a nature and landscape photographer for most of my adult life. I enjoy recording the spectrum of nature from the smallest details on the forest floor to the grandest vista from a scenic mountaintop.
My services include portraits, workshops, training, event photography and consulting.
