I have been photographing orchids for many years now, and all of the photos on this site are from my own personal orchid collection, which is now in excess of 200 orchids. Occasionally, I buy an orchid at a show or from one of my suppliers and photograph it while it is still in bloom, but mostly I grow them in a sunroom and photograph them when they are re-blooming.
As my photograph collection grew, I started hand-making note cards from these orchid photographs and giving them to close friends, who urged me to make these available online so they can be purchased and shared with others.
Now, every photograph on this site is available as a 5"x7" blank greeting card. Each card and envelope comes packaged in a plastic sleeve to protect it from dirt and fingerprints.
If you are looking for a catalog of species or hybrids with photographs for identification purposes, there are many other sites on the web that specialize in that, but I hope that you will enjoy viewing these photographs as much as I enjoy growing these orchids and photographing them.
Eventually, all photos will be organized by species. For now, they are in a random order. Every image here is also available as an 8x10 mounted and matted photograph, so you may pick and choose which size or format that you prefer.
The Smithsonian Institution has a select group of these note cards and 8x10 photographs on sale right now in their gift shop, and the Atlanta Botanical Garden has also selected their own group of note cards and 8x10 photographs from this web site. Other institutions may choose any of the photographs on this site and contact me about details on wholesale pricing.
Pre-printed invitations on the inside for special occasions or special printings on the back-side of the cards for table centerpieces are available, so please contact me with your requests.
This site is currently undergoing a complete reconstruction, so please email me if you are having any trouble placing an order via the shopping cart that is on the site. webmaster@orchidwebservices.com
