I have more than ten years of skill and experience developing and maintaining professional and personal websites. I know how to register domains and configure them to point to web servers, install and configure Windows or Linux Apache based web servers, configure Domain Name Services, install and support Content Management Systems (CMS) like Joomla or WordPress, and create and perform basic administrative functions in MySQL databases.

Photographic Services

Photograph Restoration – I have experience fixing faded or damaged photographs. Although this is a skill I have been developing for only the past three years, I have become reasonable proficient at producing good quality restoration.  I use high-resolutions scanners and cameras and industry standard applications and processes. Samples of my photograph restoration skills are available on my website. (Click Here)

Photograph Retouching – My background in photograph retouching is along the same timeline as my background in photograph restoration. I can add or remove elements from virtually any photograph, take ordinary photographs and turn them into professional-looking displayable artwork.  I can also take ordinary photographs and create completely new designs from them.  Samples of my photograph retouching skills are available on my website.
