Is there a link I can place on my web site letting customers know that the info they give to smugmug for buying photos, is safe and not shown to me.

It's fine except for three things:
1) the font is minscule and hard to read.
you can put this in your CSS section on your customization panel:
#userBio {
font-size: 16px;
}
2) there's no word such as "Gallery's" you'll want to change that to Galleries
3) same with "Photo's" you'll want to correct that to "Photos"

I'm butting in to make suggestions, hope you don't mind:D
I agree with all of what Andy said. So yes do that, but I think your bio probably doesn't have the professional appeal that you're looking for. It's kind of scattered and full of run-on sentences. I'm not trying to be a grammar nazi, that's my wife's job. I'm just trying to help you to put your best foot forward.
So here's what you've got with some markups in red:
Welcome to Exposed Images Photography's [the 's is awkward here, try not to make it posessive unless you're using your name.] Gallery, By: Pamela Stover. [consider making this welcome message its own line] I have been using Medium Format, and Digital Camera systems for the last 17 years, [no comma here] photographing Weddings,Portraits [add a space after the comma] etc..& [don't use etc..& here, if you've done more, say exactly what it is, this will lend to your credibility and not everyone knows what photographers do exactly, also the word "and" isn't that difficult to spell out that you need to use "&".] free-lanced [the tense doesn't match. You used "have been using" and "photographing" earlier so free-lanced doesn't match. Try "doing free-lance photography"] for the local newspapers [leave out "the"]. Take your time and browse through my Photo's [photos not "Photo's"], feel free to place a comment in any of the Gallery's [galleries not "Gallery's"]. Orders can be place in this [use the instead] Gallery [the word gallery should not be capitalized use galleries if you use "the" before it] and come with a excellent Guarantee! [don't capitalize guarantee and make the word guarantee a link] [start a new paragraph for the following] If you have a Birthday Party , [birthday party should not be capitalized and remove the extra space before the comma] school activity, family portrait, an animal, vehicle etc.. [Don't use etc.. here. Consider revising the sentence as seen in 1) below] you would like to have photographed in Downriver area of Michigan, Contact me below for pricing. Enjoy browsing through my Photo's. [you already said this] All photo's are © by Pamela Stover. Printing,downloading and or Copying of any photo's in any of these Gallery's is not Permitted. [you put this here but your contact info at the bottom? That's backwards!] [start a new paragraph for the following]When you place your order with smugmug, your personal info or credit card is not seen by me, and is very secure, just make sure that at the bottom of your web browser you see the secure symbol, that lets you know that your in a secured site. Smugmug will print, process & send you your order. If you have any Questions contact me or smugmug by clicking on "Satisfaction Guaranteed", Symbol [do not capitalize symbol here]. [give the mailto link for smugmug right there, don't make your customers search for it.]
1) Consider revising the following sentence:
You have: If you have a Birthday Party , school activity, family portrait, an animal, vehicle etc.. you would like to have photographed in Downriver area of Michigan, Contact me below for pricing.
Change it to something like this:
If you live in the Downriver area of Michigan and need professional photography services for any occasion contact me at <a mailto="exposedimagesphotography@yahoo.com">exposedimagesphotography@yahoo.com</a>.
Avoid the "etc.." if you possibly can. If there are just too many things to list, then generalize everything. If you can list everything then do it.
