I want to know more about You
A good conversation…
I am approachable. Easy to talk with. Knowledgable.
You may already know me as David Nikon Guy, which is easier to spell than my name, David Schwalje. And yes, Nikon is my favorite camera and lenses. For many decades!
I have enjoyed helping thousands of people (with all brands of cameras) in the Atlanta area and while traveling.
Life is good… I feel lucky and blessed.
My wife and I have been a part of the Vinings, Alpharetta, and Johns Creek community for over 30 years. Our kids are advancing in their careers. Looking back it is easy to see Love Is The Answer… a good community… Teachers. Coaches. Mentors. Family. Good friends. Photography dovetails nicely with many passions: Music. Art. Food. Sports. Nature. Wildlife. Travel. Careers.
Tell me about yourself. What are your photography goals? What do you want to talk about? What do you want to know?
Old enough…
Young enough…
Wrinkles only go where the smiles have been… and I am still smiling!
My career and my passsion was, and still is, with technology.
From before Apple made the Mac linkedin.com/in/davidschwalje publishing, packaging, and product decoration… Disruptive technology… created what we enjoy today!
Let’s talk! David Schwalje

Manufacturers / brands have wonderful websites now. Amazing source for knowledge. Fresh product. The entire product line! Compared to the typical experience at Amazon or big box retailers, buying direct from the manufacturer brand gives you a better customer experience.
