What the Billie Y. Clark Fund Does

The purpose of the fund is to help educate and offer assistance to our neighbors impacted by Alzheimer's Disease in the rural areas of North Central Texas... in memory of Billie Y. Clark.

Each year, several free educational seminars will be offered to citizens living in Parker and Palo Pinto Counties and neighboring communities. These events will be funded by the Billie Y. Clark Fund.

Terri Cage is a horse loving photographer! Among her favorite subjects are nature, wildlife and equine.

Terri says, “I always had some type of camera and slowly upgraded. I grew up in a photography loving family and we even had a dark room in our house. I never stopped taking photos even after working a regular 8 to 5 job for 20+ years. It was finally time to do what I love and help others build memories. Haven't looked back and am constantly learning and building my photography business.”

She loves to use natural and artificial light in her style of photography.  “ I am constantly learning new techniques on the use of light and how it improves my photography.  I do not over edit my photos, I prefer to only enhance colors, details and retouch. I like my photos to look natural without overblown colors.

Her specialties are equine photography, ranch calls, equestrian events, nature, wildlife, senior portraits, fashion, model portfolios, photography lessons and an occasional wedding.

Photography lets the creative side of me tell a story and help bring memories to those on the other side of the camera. Meeting a wide variety of people and seeing new places is a big plus too!
