The Passing of a Institution

Bill Meriwether passed away Sunday.

If you had not had the pleasure, he was THE photographer in Macon for almost 50 years. (He actually photographed my in-laws' wedding.) He was a sweet man who spent his life gladly sharing his knowledge with anyone who asked. I only had the joy of meeting Mr. Meriwether one time. He shared a lighting technique with me that I still use to this today. It was a little thing, that made a big impression.

He will be greatly missed.
