Origins of Kept Light Web Site

Kept Light Photography goes back to 1999 when I started a very simple Web site with a few pages. For a couple of years, it remained like that with static content. But, at that time, visitors to Web sites were very few, only some friends came and looked at them. Take a look at the origins of the Kept Light Photography Web site, please forgive the nonworking Gallery link and its very narrow layout. Hard to believe now, but then, the best monitor resolution was 640 x 480!

Around 2003, I started adding more content and in 2004 added a gallery of photographs from my highly popular and successful exhibit, On Seeing. The content was hand-coded in HTML and I kept it on a campus server at Providence College. As I started to experiment with WordPress, a photography site was a natural candidate and I registered my domain name, keptlight.com and started using an outside hosting company.

Since around 2003 or 2004, Kept Light Photography has had tens of thousands of visitors from all over the world and I added significantly more content. As of October 2020, there are over 700 posts including the very first few articles that carry the date of 2003 and 2004. I hope that you spend a little time exploring the site structure and find content that may be of interest to you.

Thank you for visiting Kept Light Photography.
