/local/images/whatsnew/Wade45.jpg J. Wade Tipton, M. Photog., Cr., CPP, TCD, F-PPMo, F-PPO has been busy since this past June of 2005! First, was a stop off at Baptist Hospital West where the fine staff put a stint in one of Wade's arteries to open up two blockages! AND this is where he works out 3 times a week to this day! All is going well and Wade is back to work, however.....Wade no longer photographs weddings.

Wade traveled to Ridgecrest, North Carolina where he was the key note speaker for the International Christian Photographer's Annual Convention. Wade talked about making the transition from film to digital imaging. Wade was proud to give his personal testimony of his slavation experience and how the Lord is working in his life.

After North Carloina, Wade was asked to go to West Virginia to speak at West Virginia Professional Photographer's Annual Fall Seminar. September in Ripley West Virginia is absolutely beautiful! Here Wade spoke on Post Film Stress Disorder and shared some tips on how to enhance photographs in Adobe Photoshop CS2. While in West Virgina, Wade judged the membership's anual Folio competition.

Staying busy during the Fall with homecomings, senior portraits, fall festivals, Joy & Wade going to UT Football games to watch Philip march with the Pride of the Southland Band, Thanksgiving and Christmas......Gallery Portraits was glad to see the Holiday break!

2006 came in with the usual bang of UPWARD Basketball portraits at several churches around the immediate area. Then February took Wade to Memphis to judge the Memphis Profesioinal Photographic Guild's annual print competition, then to Chattanooga to judge Chattanooga Profesional Photographer's Association's annual print competition and then finally back home in Knoxville to judge Smoky Mountain Professional Photographer's annual print competition.

Currently, Gallery Portraits is preparing for a wonderful Spring season with Easter Portraits next on the agenda!
