Your Bio

The AARON PHOTO ARCHIVE is here!

email: info@aaronphotoarchive.com

On this web page you will find photographs of the Aaron Families, restored photographs from the Rothschild, Sohn, Adler, and Aaron ancestors, along with a number of event-based galleries. My original smugmug website (dhaimages.com) grew so large that it became difficult to manage. And once I started giving photographs to charity auctions and got my first "showing," I needed to have a place for the more "artistic" images to stand separately from the family photographs.

My most ambitious photographic project at this time is the restoration of hundreds of family images, the most precious being portraits from Germany taken between the 1870s and 1939. Most of the faces "restored" are of ancestors who died long before I was born. Some perished tragically during Germany's dark era. Restoring images involves an intimate connection with one's past. There is a sense of duty in saving fading family images, but the activity is intertwined with the hope that our own faces will be remembered long into the future. My own emotional connection to these images has motivated me to take photographs of family members ever more frequently. We can never anticipate which image will capture a meaningful moment in another's life, nor can one know which images will survive.

Other gallery categories should be self explanatory. Click on a category and you will arrive at a page housing galleries relevant to that cateogry (e.g., Family Gatherings, Sports).
