Meet The Team
It all starts back in '03 when Terry W. Robarts too on the job of track photographer, at Sauble Speedway. Through a chance meeting with legendary motorsports photographer, Dave Franks, Terry was able to learn many valuable skills, and improve on his talents.
In Mid 2006, T.W. Robarts Photos moved to Varney Motor Speedway, and later in the year, Kayley joined the team as track photographer. 2007 was the first year for our one of a kind, "On-Site" photo finishing Service. To this day, the service is still the only one of it's kind at an Ontario short track.
2009 introduced the now famous "Pace Truck", as the Official Pace Truck at Varney Motor Speedway. It also serves as our Flagship, representing our service and our sponsors, not only at local race tracks, but in parades and shows across Southern Ontario, winning several awards for it's unique design & colorful appearance.
In 2011, T.W. Robarts Photos returns to Sauble Speedway, where it all began, with a staff of 5, and an agressive style for getting some of the more unique photos in the business. We deliver over 1000 shots from several angles each night, and through our web services, make them available as soon as possible.
We could never do what we do without the kind support of drivers, fans, & friends, and of course, the race tracks that give us to opportunity to capture the moments.
Special thanks to Dave franks, for always helping along the way.
Terry W. Robarts
Manager/Head Photographer
9 years later, you will still often see Terry hiding in some pretty strange places, looking for the next shot. Terry has done photos at several Ontario tracks, trade & Car shows. He also looks after the web operations at the office, making sure photos get to the site as quickly as possible.
Kayley Russwurm

Kayley has been with us since late '06. She is most often seen on the "Winner's Circle", taking photos for us. She graduated this year from Fanshawe College, Office Administration Medical Program. She is currently employed with Integrated Circle of Care, in London,
as a Medical Assistant, but she will still find the occasional weekend to join us at the track.
Kellie Bell-Bester

Kellie is the newest memeber of our team and will be joining us on the track at Sauble Speedway this summer, whenever possible. Kellie is a student & Cheerleader, at Walkerton District Secondary School.
She will be helping us with infield and Winner Circle photography this season.
Kendra E. Pegelo

Kendra is on her 3rd season with us as the photo booth manager. She looks after all photo finishing at the track and at our office. The odd time you might also catch her talking photos for us as well.
Kendra graduates from Walkerton District Secondary School this year.
Brenda Russwurm
Office Manager
Brenda has managed the office for us since the beginning. She takes care of all our adminstration and assorted paperwork, vital to keeping us going every week. She's most often refered to as the "Actual Boss" of the operation.
"Whiskey"
Mascot
Whiskey is our faithful mascot and watchdog, looking after the shop when we are at the track, and keeping us company when we are home. He is our head of security, though you might be more worried of being licked to death, than being bitten.
