Bob Carey’s career nearly took a different route but fate had plans for this gentle caring soul.
“My passion for photography started after a skateboard injury. Once healed, I bought a camera and started taking pictures of my skater friends.”
Bob studied photography in college and assisted the top photographers in Phoenix. He continued working with these photographers after graduation.
“I eventually opened my own studio. We didn’t plan it but Linda started working with me at that time and helped build our business. We’ve been working together for over 20 years.”
Linda adds “March 17 1986 was our first date and we have been together ever since.”
