Meet Les
Les has been involved in the business of graphic communications since 1973. As the world changed how we did our work from the drawing board to a digital screen we learned to adjust and embrace new technologies. But, at the core, how we did it changed but not the why. The lessons we learned remain the same and to this day have not changed. Being self employed taught us how to survive, to go above and beyond our clients expectations. After all that’s why they chose us in the first place and we did our best not to dissappoint them.

Meet Mark Ridout
In addition to being a professional photographer Mark is also a story teller as is evedenced by his following bio:
My parents were both members of a traveling circus. They lived in a small trailer. I got used to sleeping outdoors at an early age where I developed my love of nature photography. My father was a contortionist and my mother was a sideshow fire breather. I was born a few years before they broke up over an alleged affair between my mother and a dwarf horse rider. My father left town and was killed a short time later when the suitcase he had folded himself into for a nap at the airport was inadvertently dropped out of an airplane for an American Tourister commercial. The suitcase survived. I performed in the circus as a sideshow act where my tall height and thin form earned me the stage name Giraffe boy. As a teenager I was separated from my mother when the circus went bankrupt after a show in Bobcaygeon. My mother had set the big top ablaze during a botched fire breathing demonstration. I was left to fend for myself and I utilized my skills to excel as an employee at a local burger restaurant where my spatula flipping exploits were legendary. During my days off, for extra money, I took photos of children siting on tired Donkeys as well as help set up the annual fair rides. I’m good with animals and children, I’m afraid of whips and I love sleeping in a tent.
