Welcome. I am a civil war reenactor and I enjoy taking photos luckily both have come together quite well. Please look around my galleries. If you are just browsing, send me an email message of what you like or any questions you may have. I also encourage past buyers to give me feedback via email as well. Thank you for visiting I appreciate it very much.
The War between the States was a civil war fought from 1861 to 1865 between the United States. Approximately 625,000 men died in the Civil War, more Americans than in World War I, World War II, the Korean War and the Vietnam War combined. If the names of the Civil War dead were arranged like the names on the Vietnam Memorial, it would stretch over 10 times the wall’s length. Two percent of the population died, that is equivalent of 6 million men today.
The images I create are from photographs taken at Civil War Reenactments. I use a Nikon D3000 camera and shoot in both raw and jpeg formats. This allows much more flexibility in post processing. The images are then edited in Photoshop to give them a vintage feel as if they were actually an 1860s photograph (tintype). I feel that this better represents the time period and really brings the civil war to life.
I try to offer reasonably priced quality prints of historical events. I hope you enjoy the images I create, comments are always welcome. Thank You.
