Judy Reinford M.Photog.,M.Artist,CR. MAI

In 1989 Judy graduated from Kutztown University and started working in photography for Hess’s department store. She photographed everything from china to jewelry to bed linens. Looking back, climbing a 10 foot ladder to use an 8x10 film camera to photograph products that were printed on plastic and backlit for store displays was fun and challenging. There was no Photoshop.

In 1994 Judy started working at an ad agency in pre-press, scanning film on a large drum scanner
and working in Photoshop to edit and composite. This led to a job at Rodale Press, continuing
to do the same thing

Returning to photography with her new skills, Judy started a career as a fine art photographer. Judy specializes in Equine and Pet photography. Her studio is located in Bath, Pennsylvania. As a mom to 7 spoiled Pomeranians, Judy enjoys working with the unpredictability, high energy, and often time challenging task of photographing animals big and small.

Judy’s interest in zoo photography came about with her interest in print competitions. This led to an interest in fundraising and donating to the zoo’s finished work for Gala silent auctions. Having a charity or nonprofit that matches the type of art she created was a perfect match. Judy Reinford has a BFA in Communication Design and Fine Art Photography from Kutztown University in Kutztown, PA.
