Absolutely true and even more so perhaps for the genealogist who may be many miles from where the family lived. A quality photograph of the church where your ancestors were baptised, married or buried; the place where they lived or other location, will personalise your family history and help bring it to life.
It is always great to be able to simply get in the car/train/bus to go and take photographs of the places and areas connected to the family. Unfortunately sometimes this may not be easily possible for a number of reasons; distance, time etc.
Therefore this website offers a paid-for photographic service in the following areas of the South East of England; Greater London, Kent, East Sussex, West Sussex and Surrey. Certain parts of Essex and Middlesex may also be available.
Once the visit has taken place, it will be possible to supply all photographs taken (in jpg format), and a page giving a number of views plus some interesting information in both pdf and Publisher formats. A sample page can be see by clicking on the links below:-
