Teri Moy Photography - Photography is my life. It’s what I live and breathe. Every moment is history in the making. If I can capture one moment in time that puts a smile on some one’s face, then I am doing what I was born to do. When I am long gone, I want my children to know who I was - to know who they are - and who they are going to become. I consider it a privilege every time a family, or individual allows me to enter in their personal world and record who they are. Besides my faith, children and family - to me there is no greater joy. www.terimoy.com

The Intelligent Office (IO) idea is simple—clients can work from home or anywhere their laptops and cell phones take them, but Intelligent Office is their professional office base. Intelligent Office fields all business phone calls, faxes and mail, and provides a first-class corporate facility with offices and conference rooms available when needed.  Intelligent Office provides groundbreaking services for a fraction of the cost of traditional officing. Not only is IO a hit with home-based companies, it proves to be very popular with traditional offices, which often calls wanting IO to handle their receptionist services too, for help with telecommuting programs, or to set-up branch offices at other locations throughout North America. Our clients have commented that while they initially joined IO for the affordability, they’ve stayed for the professionalism and the freedom that Follow-Me Communications provide. People have become more dependent on mobile technology, IO has developed a whole suite of services to help them work virtually with very “real” office support behind them.
