About Jim Landers
Jim Landers is a native of San Antonio. (Paternal Grandparents moved here in the early 40’s) He grew up in the Northside school district and was in the first graduating class at Taft High School in 1987. Jim has been a member of Trinity United Methodist Church for over 25 years.

Jim went to college at UTSA his freshman year and then transferred to Sam Houston State University in Huntsville, Texas to study photography. (Note: Jim is one of very few photographers in San Antonio that actually has a four-year degree in photography) Within a month of graduating, in May of 1991, Jim was working as the photography manager at Sea World of Texas. During the school year, when Sea World was closed, he was a substitute teacher in the Northside Independent School District.

Jim left Sea World after just two seasons to become a school photographer. He has photographed students at more than half of all the schools in San Antonio and surrounding areas.

Jim is a professional photographer who has been published in many magazines, in locations as far away as Australia. Even Kodak has specifically requested his work for their advertising. One company uses Jim as the person who does all of the hiring and training for the photographers who work at Affordable Wedding Photography.

He loves teaching one-on-one photography classes. Jim also mentors high school students and others who are considering a career in the field. Since 1995, he has volunteered at the NISD Gifted and Talented program for sixth graders called Nature Venture. Jim is a charter member of the Dominion Rotary Club.

Jim enjoys photographing people from business and social events to individual and family portraits; and of course, Weddings!

The categories of photography that we do

We abide by The Four-Way Test

From the earliest days of the organization, Rotarians were concerned with promoting high ethical standards in their professional lives. One of the world's most widely printed and quoted statements of business ethics is The Four-Way Test, which was created in 1932 by Rotarian Herbert J. Taylor (who later served as RI president) when he was asked to take charge of a company that was facing bankruptcy.

This 24-word test for employees to follow in their business and professional lives became the guide for sales, production, advertising, and all relations with dealers and customers, and the survival of the company is credited to this simple philosophy. Adopted by Rotary in 1943, The Four-Way Test has been translated into more than a hundred languages and published in thousands of ways. It asks the following four questions:

"Of the things we think, say or do:

Is it the TRUTH?

Is it FAIR to all concerned?

Will it build GOODWILL and BETTER FRIENDSHIPS?

Will it be BENEFICIAL to all concerned?"
