Our History

 

Rodney Clark opened Clark Photography in a small back room of his brother's Jewelry Store in Waynesboro, PA in March of 1977. His career in photography started in 1973 as a yearbook photographer while a sophomore at Smithsburg High School. After graduating from High School he continued to work as an Advertising Photographer for a local publishing company and in 1980 went into photography full time. In 1982 Rodney took over the entire space that was once his brother's Jewelry Store and turned it into a full service Portrait Studio specializing in Commercial, Wedding & Portrait Photography. In 1986, Rodney & Vickie Clark purchased the 175 year old Federal Style building that housed the business in downtown Waynesboro.

 

As the business grew, Rodney was noticing that more and more of his photography was being done outdoors, so the decision was made and in 1996 the Clarks purchased a stone colonial manor on the outskirts of Waynesboro. This new location gave Rodney and Vickie the opportunity to create one of the area's Premier Portrait Studios. Many of their outdoor portrait locations are one-of-a-kind, ranging from a Victorian gazebo, beautiful gardens, unique outbuildings, antique street lights, many different types of fences & swings, a real mountain stream and so much more. Inside you will find a state-of-art studio with both modern and traditional backgrounds to accommodate most any style of photography.

Clark Photography is also one of the first in the area to make the change to Digital Photography. This change gives us the ability to do more styles of photography from one source. We can give you Color, Black & White, Sepia Tone, Hand Tinted, Black & White Infrared all from the same image. Digital Photography gives us more creativity to make that Senior Portrait, Children's Portrait, Family Portrait or Wedding that much more special.

 

As you look through the website you will see many beautiful images, many of them are award winning. We hope you enjoy looking at them as much as we enjoyed creating them for you.

Best Wishes,

Rodney Clark
