President Garfield Casket

These Photos here were taken in President Garfield's private mausoleum in Lake-view cemetery near Cleveland Ohio.

National Weather Service Poster

This is a picture of a poster I created off photoshop for the National Weather Service in White Lake Michigan. Its actual size is 22x24 in. The bottom left corner reads: "During severe weather, The Meteorologists at the National Weather Service in White Lake, Mi work together with local Skywarn and law enforcement members to provide accurate and on-time warnings to help you and your family get to safety !!"

This is the Office that I report to when I do my storm chasing. I have been part of Skywarn for 10 years now and love it !

High School memories

Sometimes when a picture is really hard to see and blurry, and printed on regular printer paper in black and white, it really makes a difference to add a dark frame or boarder around it, and De-saturate the photo even more, bringing out the black and white more and sharpening the edges to make it less blurry. Also shrinking the picture to a smaller size can also help decrease blurriness. Add some text and color to the boarder and you have yourself a wonderfully redone picture.

Jenni and Ashely

Here is an example of something to do with pictures that are hard to see, or discolored. Turning a faded picture into black and white can really make a difference.

Mothers Day

This photoshop creation became very special to my mom. I made it completely from scratch, and wanted to incorporate the "son or daughter" in the quote i came up with. Being my mom is in the picture, as well as my mom's mom. Great mothers day gift idea !

Pokemon cover

This Photoshop creation was a fun one to do, I made this for my nephew Charlie for Christmas. It went in the front of a binder for him to keep his Pokemon card collection in.

Grandmothers memorial card

This is a memorial card I made for my grandmothers funeral. She passed away of Alzheimer's disease.

Brian Memorial

This is a Memorial I made for my Friend Jen , who's brother (Brian) passed away 2 years before. They were extremely close, and the poem was actually written by Brian for Jen.

My Best Photo Restoration

This picture is one of my best photo restorations I have done i believe. The picture below is what it use to look like. It was sitting in my dad's car for years and experienced color fading, cracking form the sun, and many scratches. So for Fathers day I decided to redo this picture for my dad. It is 3 generations, My grandfather, my dad, and myself. This photo was taken up north, with lake Michigan in the background. Total time to restore it took about 1.5 weeks.
