Valerie Uteg, Print Archivist and Photographer: Shortly after graduating with a BS in Marine Biology from Spring Hill College, Valerie followed her love of photography. Since 1998, she has been working in varying areas from processing film and printing to the many aspects of commercial, architectural and aerial photography. Valerie revived and now oversees the vast collection of vintage photography that spans 60 years of history, growth and activities in the Mobile and surrounding areas, including aerials and Mardi Gras. To further her involvement in the realm of aerial photography and to continue her education as a "student of life", she has begun her training to obtain her pilots license. valerie@thigpenphoto.com | ||
