Welcome to R. Purvis Photography. If you are here then you either have already met me or have heard about my photography. Either way, thank you for taking a moment to look around.

I have been interested in photography since the 70's when I took it in college. back in the stone age when you shot with 35 mm film and actually developed them in a dark room. . The new digital world is very complex and exciting. There is so much you can do with a photograph now. I can make you soar through the sky, sit on a crazy looking mushroom. I can make the background formal or put you on a lovely island. I like to live outside of the box and give you something that noone else has, my creativity.

I have always lived outside the box and done things just alittle different then most folks. I don't want people to say cheese . Actually, I will ask you not to do that if I am photographing one of your family members. I want your pictures to look like they are natural and not posed. Most of my shots, you will notice, people are not staring at my camera lense. I think it helps to make people less nervous and makes for a more interesting picture.

I enjoy doing engagement photo's, weddings,family pictures,.newborns, live bands and some landscapes. I have dabbled in just about anything that involves a "good shot". I hope you find my photo's interesting. I would love the opportunity to photograph your special occasion. I have a home studio and can do photo's here but I prefer to do outdoor shots. Natural light cannot be duplicated.

We are a mother /daughter team. She does alot of my editing and also assists in most of my photo shoots. Very soon she she will be an assistant photographer with me. . She is younger and has alot of fresh idea's and two minds are better then one.

Enjoy!!!
