Nancy: I am replying to an email that my mother received on the Tennessee Union County mailing list. I work as an artist and photographer and am interested in the photo job you described. My work experience includes photographing monuments and architectural details as this is the subject I tend to draw. Equipment and transportation are readily available. Located in Virginia, I am one hour from the Tennessee line. We can discuss the project in greater detail if you are interested in my services. I can be reached at rfgibson@naxs.com or 540-228-0957.
