An Open House Reception is planned for Friday, Sept. 3 from 4 to 7 p.m. The public is invited and refreshments will be available.

For several years, Perry worked throughout Maine as a freelance photographer primarily for the Associated Press and the Maine Times. His photos have appeared in newspapers and magazines around the world including Newsweek, the New York Times, USA Today, and National Geographic Magazine.

Perry enjoyed capturing bits of history on film and sharing it with others through the news media. However, he often found himself wanting to get more into his pictures than the normal window of view typical 35 mm cameras could provide.

He currently works with digital cameras to capture wide landscape views of Maine, New Hampshire and beyond. He prints and frames his landscapes in his studio. They are available for purchase online and at selected art shows and galleries.

Perry says his goal is to create views within the confines of a picture frame that are so expansive and magnificent, they will make you feel you are at the place the picture was taken. He hopes his photography will rekindle memories of a special place and help share the beauty of that special place with others.
