Dear
Dave,
While travel has been slow or
non-existent over the past year,
many of us have picked up side
hustles to
fill our time and maybe earn a few
extra bucks.
For some that may be being a full
time parent to kids who are doing
school online from home. For others
that may mean getting or creating
another job, for now.
I decided to fill my time with
hobbies and little side businesses,
expanding on things I know and love.

COVID PHOTO BOOK:
Last Fall, I wrote and
self-published a Covid Signs photo
book to help document this unique
time and how different parks and
businesses reacted to the
pandemic. FYI, I still do have a few
signed copies of my first printing
available
HERE.
|
PHOTO SCANNING SERVICE: Old
photos, negatives and slides fade
and deteriorate over time. Recently
I finished my 2 year project of
scanning a lifetime of family photos
and slides. It has been great to
share some of those digital old
memories with family and friends via
email and text.
Since I have the hardware (flatbed
scanner and a new slide/negative
scanner), I decided to offer my
services and time to do the same for
family and friends. Click
HERE
to find out details, if I can assist
you.
|
PHOTO COLLAGE SERVICE: Over
the years, I have created many, many
photo collages as gifts for family
and friends of important events
(weddings, holidays, vacations,
etc.).
Do you need a unique gift for a
loved one? Do you need a creative
travel poster or canvas for your
home or agency office? Click
HERE
to find out details, if I can assist
you.
Stay safe and strong.
Sincerely,
Dave Emery
