John
is a professional photographer but he also donates a lot
of his time to the
City of Tustin. His favorite thing to do is take photos
of community activities, fundraisers and parades that
go on in Tustin. He always makes himself available with
his camera on his shoulder. John and his wife Diane and
daughter Katie (a local college student) love to go camping
and they enjoy the outdoors and find beautiful areas to
take photos (John always has his camera along!). John
is a real people person and enjoys making new friends.
He currently belongs to Professional Photographers of
California (PPC) and the American Society of Modern Photographers
(ASMP). As a contributor to our community, John photographs
fundraisers, such as Miss Tustin Fashion show, Jim Palmer's
rescue Mission activities, and also events of the Exchange
Club of Tustin.
He
also takes numerous photos of the Mayor and City Council
members throughout the year as well as photographing many
Tustin school activities and sports events throughout
the Tustin Unified School District. John received a special
award from the City of Tustin in July of 2013 for his
hard work and dedication-the City of Tustin knows who
John McGuire. Look for him at events like the annual Chili
Cook-Off, Tustin Tiller Days (as well as the kick-off
parade), Enderle Center Holiday Show, Christmas Tree Lighting,
