What’s in your ancestral town photo portfolio?
Also included is a diary of my experiences in your ancestral town. Drawing on more than 17 years experience as a photojournalist, your diary usually includes:
  • Names of local archivists or historians in your ancestral town that can help you get more information about your ancestors.
  • Information to help you understand the geography around your ancestral town, important to help you understand why ancestors settled in a particular area of America.
Detailed maps and information to help you understand your ancestors’ surroundings
  • Maps of the area around your ancestral town of such detail that you can easily imagine the layout of your ancestral town and the landscape around it. These maps are impossible to locate in America and can only be bought at the source.
  • Village or area histories. These precious books are only available in your ancestral town.
Interest family members in your hobby
Are close family members and cousins bored by genealogy? Professional photographs created in your ancestral town by European Focus give life to pedigree charts and involve those who may not have been interested before. Watch what happens at your next family reunion, when you can show photographs of where your family tree first took root.

More than a decade of service and success
European Focus is the world’s leader in genealogical photography. I take deep interest in every project because its success means the continued growth of my business.
  • More than 1,600 villages and towns in Europe have been photographed for genealogy enthusiasts since 1990, and my library of images grows by about 100-125 new villages and towns each year.
  • About a third of all new projects produced each year are for return clients, who are eager to see their other ancestral towns.
You’re probably thinking that to see your ancestral town using a service this personal, unique and specialized must cost thousands of dollars. You’re about to be very pleasantly surprised. Fees for new projects
