Plan to spend the day and see what life in a Civil War camp was
really like. Chat with the soldiers as they prepare for battle,
clean their rifles, or get their horses ready for the fight. As
always, the re-enactors invite the public into our camps at all
times. Visitors can ask us questions, just sit with us, or
bring their family histories for us to hear. Please don't just
come for the battle, so much more happens in a soldier's daily
life.

If you want to capture your family's precious milestones,
From The Past Studio can make it happen. You can count
on us to deliver what we promise. With years of experience
and a burning desire to offer our clients quality and
professional service, our photography studio is the area's
finest. I take photos of fellow reenactors and convert
modern pictures into period Cabinet Cards or Cart de visits
for authenticity. I convert military, babies, women,
children, dogs, weddings and family/Unit pictures. I can
also do face swaps, if a non-reenactor wants an old photo of
themselves, I will place their face on an already
established photo of the period. I will also attend your
event and take event photos that will be placed in my on
line Gallery for purchasing:
www.fromthepaststudio.printroom.com. I can also take
videos of events and convert them into old style silent
film. We understand that each client has different needs –
that is why we are more than willing to serve your unique
requests. If you are searching for something that is not on
our services list, just ask! We'll be more than happy to
help.
