We photographed a local celebrity! :

We are very excited to say that one of our portrait clients is famous! No, Julie was not able to get Brad Pitt in our studio, but rather someone of the feathered variety. Lemon the Duck and her "mom" Laura Backman had Julie photograph them for their book which is due out this summer. Animal causes are near and dear to all of our hearts here are Bristol Workshops (we have a total of 14 four legged "kids" between us). So we were tickled pink (or should I say "lemon") when Laura called the studio asking us to do a portrait of her special duck. Check out our favorite shot on the professional portraits page. Read more about Lemon and the special bond she shares with Laura.

 

Workshops News :  

The Digital Photography Workshop is a hit! Everyone seems to have gotten new digital cameras this winter and not know how to use them to their potential. No sense in having a three color histogram display if you don't know what to do with it!  Let us show you how. Dates for spring workshops are being organized now. More Digital Photography Workshops with Mark Abbott have been added to the summer schedule!

(Private tutorials are available on an hourly basis - call to find out more information!)
