RED’S BIO

   Red started his photographic career way back in high school when he finished up his last two years of High School working in the Audio/Visual Department of Caro High School.

      After graduating in 1967 he moved to Kansas City to be with his fiancé Roberta Hill who he later married in 1969. He continued his schooling at Kansas State University and also worked full time for the U.S. Post Office.

     He started his “Home Studio” in Lapeer in 1976, photographing Weddings, Families, Seniors etc. Once again he also worked full time at Oakdale Center along with his wife until that facility closed.

 In 1995 he really expanded his knowledge of photography by joining the Professional Photographers of Michigan and Michigan Triangle Professional Photographers Association of Lansing. In 1996 he was one of the first students to attend the beginning of “GLiP” which was the Great Lakes Institute of Photography at Northwood University in Midland. After only two years as a student he was asked to join the staff at the College. He subsequently became a Trustee at the school for the next 10 years. This Accredited school has anywhere from 50 to 150 semi-professional and long time photographers as students each year. Red’s last week long course was from Kalen Henderson who is one of the best known Senior Photographers in the U.S.

      He is now currently serving his third term of office on the Board of Directors for PPM.  In February 2011 he will be the President of The Professional Photographers of Michigan.  He is also a member of Michigan Triangle Professional Photographers of Lansing.   Every month he is at lectures and seminars given by well known Photographers from all over the U.S. This is to make sure he continues to learn the latest techniques in photography.

    Red has three children Shelly, Kevin and Nicky. He also has 12 grandchildren… so he never seems to run out of models for new backgrounds and props

However should you really want to see what is happening at Artistic Images... then check out Red’s Facebook page at -  Red Enos - this is much more informative than a simple Blog... there are over 60 albums of images and daily posts of current events and  really boring daily things...lol

In 2008 Red with the help of family and friends built his custom designed studio on 5 acres and has been hiding out there ever since :-)
