Ever since I held my first camera at the age of 8, my passion has been photography. I remember the miraculous feeling of it all – how I could snap a picture of my family or school friends, and have that image forever frozen in time. The magic of the moment, the extraordinary power of a photo to make time stand still!

Now solidly ensconced in middle age with teenagers of my own, after a career in technology and business performance systems, it is my absolute pleasure and privilege to be back to my passion - the sharing of life's best moments for perpetuity through the creation of memory books for groups.

I founded Peppertree Studios in early 2010, to combine my artistic side with the best of what I've learned about business and technology. Creating meaningful books for groups - whether it's a sports team's yearbook for 40 players or a corporate incentive trip with 400 couples - requires that this trinity of elements converge. The result is books that are:

• Easy to upload, view and share photos in a secured gallery
• Combined photos & supporting text
• Designed by professional graphic artists
• Professional quality printing
• Comparably priced to online "do-it-yourself" books (and we do ALL the work)
• Delivered quickly!

Some of the best memories of my corporate career are the recognition events. But my memory is getting hazy and all I have left are worn out emblem t-shirts and beach towels. Too bad I can't pull out a Peppertree Book of the 1991 Chairman's Club in Bermuda, or the award trips to Mexico and the Caribbean. Also, up until Peppertree began, my kids had nothing to remember school by - except maybe a little team photo in their yearbook.

The great joy we all share at Peppertree is knowing that many years from now you, and your children, will pull a Peppertree Book from the shelf that will immediately evoke an emotional experience of the great times of your life - whether they be with your company, team, school, charity organization or travel group.

We are honored to have already provided thousands of books to some of the best schools, corporations, sports teams and philanthropic organizations including UCLA, UCSD, Corona del Mar High School, Quest Software, Los Angeles Sports and Entertainment Commission, Heritage Pointe, and CureDuchenne.
