Walker Montgomery

October 24th, 2015, Walker P. Montgomery III passed away from complications following back surgery. He is survived by his wife Bonnie, daughter April, sister Lynn , and many extended family and friends from a lifetime of kindness and helpfulness.
Walker spent his life behind the lens of a camera, starting with being a photographer for his high school paper. Though he got his degree from Georgia Southern in Mechanical Engineering, his passion and love was photography. The rest of his life was spent using his engineering skills to design better equipment for his shoots, weighting his light stands with blocks of lead and frequently building his own soft boxes so he could capture life through his lens. He was the primary Public Relations photographer for the University of Georgia for 19 years, where he met his future wife. He later turned his focus to running Montgomery Photography, which allowed him to do what he truly loved and bring his world behind the lens to our world to enjoy. Although his photography covered a wide spectrum of subjects, he primarily photographed art, and enjoyed seeing the beautiful things made by the people who filled his life. His talent was well recognized by the marketing world, and seen on magazine covers and ads in a variety of fields.
A wake is planned for Saturday, October 31st, from 3-5 at The Sanctuary 13 S Barnett Shoals Rd, Watkinsville GA 30677 . The family asks that you please make a donation to the charity of your choice in lieu of flowers.
