• Henry RisticPatch Mayor

  • Woodridge, IL

Having studied Commercial Art & Advertising, Henry has always had an interest in Photography.

After a 30-year law-enforcement career with the U.S. Customs Service retirement has finally afforded him with the necessary time to pursue a long sought return to an old hobby.

Photography opened Henrys eyes and helped him see more clearly the greater beauty surrounding him. Seeing images through a camera lens and then, capturing a specific moment of life, has taken on a whole new meaning for Henry. It is the simple but profound message that underscores the need to make sure that he does his best to stay focused on the things that really matter most.

Henry enjoys being close to his family and being the best possible Grandpa that he can be. Henry also enjoys traveling and visiting far away places, which allows him to capture fond photo memories.
