About Me
About Us

I have a MA in French & Spanish from the University of Texas at Austin. I taught for about 30 years. I enjoy hiking and the gym.

I bought my first SLR camera in 1971 and have never stopped taking pictures since. I take pictures for the joy of it.

At Bud Ellis Photography I strive to help people find the look that's right for them. I go the extra mile to develop a perfect image for your portraits, displays, or other personal memories.  Wherever the location, Bud Ellis Photography strives to create a photograph that you and your family will cherish.

In 2009 I upgraded my equipment to full frame photography. I use a Nikon D700 body http://www.nikonusa.com/Find-Your-Nikon/Product/Digital-SLR/25444/D700.html and three Nikon lenses: the http://www.kenrockwell.com/nikon/16-35mm.htm, the AF-S NIKKOR 24-70mm f/2.8G ED and the AF-S VR Zoom-NIKKOR 70-200mm f/2.8G IF-ED. I added two Nikon SB-900 speedlights http://www.nikonusa.com/Find-Your-Nikon/Product/Flashes/4807/SB-900-AF-Speedlight.html, and two Lastolite EZY Boxes  http://www.lastolite.com/ezybox.php. Check them out, and you will see I am doing my best to give you the photos of your dreams.
