Paul A. Valentine, Owner A little about me... I am a (semi) retired home builder who wants to keep busy in the industry. I don’t want to work all day, but I don’t want to sit around home all day either. So, I take on small to medium jobs that I can do by myself. No helpers. If I have to hire help to do a job, someone else can have it. I seem to stay busy all of the time, so I must be working too cheap!☺I like to start early in the morning, and quit early in the afternoon, or when I reach a natural stopping point. I have over 38 years of active continuous experience in New Home Construction, New Home Architecture, and Existing Home Remodeling and Repair. I have been fully engaged in the Home Construction Industry since 1971. I have personally done almost everything there is to do in the construction of a house, from the drawing of all of the original blueprints to the final clean-up and trouble shooting. This gives me first hand knowledge of virtually all facets regarding the construction and repair of residential properties. I thoroughly understand how houses are put together. From the original set-up of the foundation forms, to the final landscaping of the yard. If I come on something I don’t understand, I know how to find out. My experience gives me the insight to know what is a real problem, what is a potential problem, and what is normal behavior where your home is concerned. And then I usually know what can be done to rectify a potential problem.

Photography is one of the Hobbies that I have enjoyed all of my life. And now with young Grandchildren, and more time, we play around with our cameras now more than ever. I have been around photography since I was an infant. I probably cut my baby teeth on old film developing tanks! Or a photo enlarger! Or chemical trays! Blahhh!!! My Diapers were hung on indoor clothes lines, along with the negatives and prints that my Mom also hung there to dry. My Mother was a very serious amateur photographer in the 1940's and 50's. Those were my years growing up in rural Huntington West Virginia. I suppose you could say, at least as far as photography is concerned...I was...aaaah...Well Exposed!!! :) Photography is a long time Hobby for me, but, anything that might appear as Artistic in These Galleries, is absolutely, 100% accidental! Photo Art is for the others. I like to record things just as they really are. Just as they appear in real life. Just as I see them! I prefer to see the whole thing, not just some abstract corner. When I see someone's 'Artistic Left Front Fender' rendition of a chopped and channeled 49 Mercury, I have to say to myself..."Good Gosh!!! Where's the REST of it???"http://www.valentine-photography.com/galleriesshapeimage_7_link_0
