Your Bio

Welcome to Island Photography!

Photography has always been my passion. After years of working in the business world as an investment advisor, I decided it was time to let my artistic side have a try. Both are incredibly rewarding occupations, but I have to say that photography is much more fun!

Enjoy my photos, and please email me, or call 941-778-5676 for your next event!

Beachhouse Fireworks New Year's 2006 by Jim Taylor : Click on the photo to see more images.

"I often use the word 'joy' when describing fireworks. It is a considered work, deliberate in choice. Not just amusement, entertainment or astonishment, but joy. Our art makes us all into children again for awhile. We become one in our experience for the moment, lost in the sound and color and light. We see large forces, stronger than we can be, yet beautiful in their efforts. Sometimes violent, sometimes restrained. Deliberate beyond imagination at time, coarse and rude at others. Deadly force, dangerous, dirty stuff. Crafted with sweat. Controlled by the artist. Bringing joy to many. Bringing joy. To me the art encompasses all of life. Pain and work, plan and mistake, joy and tragedy. For all the pain, injury and failure we suffer, our efforts bring the joy - the magic to thousands. Not a bad return. Though very few ever recognize the effort, nearly all remember the result, and have for a few moments, the joy. The world is better for an instant. What more could one want? ~ Jim Taylor ~

The Studio also featured A Children's Art Display of Birds provided by Kathy Hayes, a resident of Anna Maria and Principal at B.D. Gullett Elementary. Chuck Caudill - popular island singer, performer and recording artist provided music :) I spent the evening at the Studio, so the only other gallery I had time to see was ArtSpace.
