She attended the Triangle Institute of Photography, and she was one of three national award recipients of the Susan A. Hudson Memorial Scholarship sponsored by Fuji Film.

Geoff and Tammy are the area’s leading husband and wife photography team. While studio portrait sessions allow them to showcase their individual abilities, they enjoy combining their talents for special occasions such as weddings and corporate functions. With years of experience and motivation to please their customers , they are an unbeatable team. The Susquehanna University Alumni Association recognized their personal and professional contributions by naming Geoff and Tammy Young Alumni of the Year for 2004.

Geoff and Tammy support the rescue of abandoned and/or abused animals, and they encourage the adoption of domestic pets from local animal shelters. For this reason, The Camera Box will donate a portion of its proceeds from all pet sittings to PAWS, The Preservation of Animal Welfare and Safety, Inc. and The Humane Society of the Harrisburg Region.
