Jerry Hartman - Owner
Jerry has over 25 years of photographic experience. His career began as a photographer for Cyclone Illustrated, an Iowa State publication. From that "hobby" assignment he began work at the Creston News Advertiser as a sports assistant, taking photos of sporting events. This led to individuals asking, "Do you take photos for other things than just sports?" Eventually branching out into Weddings, Family Portraiture and Senior Photos. "People liked my work. When my "boss" said I needed to make a choice...I chose to open my own studio and work for myself." Action Photo was born January 4, 2004 opening in the Wintermute Business Plaza on HWY 34. In November of 2006 the property the business is current housed in was purchased. Action Photo grew and needed to expand, the uptown property allowed us to add the ink refilling business and expand our studio offerings. We "Action Photo" will continue to evolve and grow. Come join us!
