“The number one unique factor of our business is our guarantee,” said owner Carol Cardwell. “We absolutely guarantee you’ll be thrilled, not just satisfied, with your photographs and our service.“If you aren’t thrilled, for any reason, we will either do whatever is necessary to see to it you are thrilled, or if you aren’t thrilled, we will cheerfully give you all your money back. No hassles, and no hard feelings, either.” Cardwell said one of the most rewarding things about her business is working with her daughter, Tiffany. “We have so much fun spinning off of each other’s ideas and pushing the other to do even better,” she said.
The other big reward is the satisfaction of sharing the joy and emotion of clients when they view their images for the first time. “We put our heart and our soul into creating emotional images to capture not only a moment in time, but also the emotions of the ones our clients love,” said Cardwell. The business is involved with many nonprofits, such as Now I Lay Me Down to Sleep, Hospice of Mercy, Crossing Thin Ice, Women United in Christ. The business also donates to the La Plata Family Center Coalition, The Pregnancy Center and Habitat for Humanity. Cardwell Aukerman Photography is located at 556 Main Ave., open Monday through Friday from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. For more information, call (970) 259-5442 or visit www.DurangoPhotographer.com
