The Trombley Family

Baby Cutler came into the studio at Christmas time to visit Santa and decided he wasn't much of a fan...so I invited the family back 2 months later for a complimentary family portrait session.....I must admit that I had found out that his Dad was a body builder and had only 5% body fat! Everyone was thrilled with the end result- a 40" wrap canvas of multiple images. I have to admit that this portrait is one of my favorite creations because it's everything Mom and Dad and myself wanted to capture and now they'll always have memories of Cutler as a baby! I love what I do!!

Enjoy,

Children's Portrait Contest 2009 is Here!!

2008 Awards are In!

Chris and I have entered four prints each into the Professional Photographers of America's International Print Competition since 1984. Yikes that's a long time!

Every year a Loan Collection book is published with the' best of the best' images judged from across the world. Usually the top 5% of the images 'that stand above the rest' make it into this elite publication.

This year Chris and I both have two images each and we feel very honored and blessed to be named among this talented group of professionals.

We have posted the four winning images with a little 'ditty' about each one below...enjoy

Sisters

Shannon was getting ready to leave for college so I asked her if I could photograph her with her little sister. I'm happy that the pose tells the story of how much her sister will miss her. In the years to come, this shot will always carry both of them back to that time.

Sophia at Eleven

I'm Soooo glad I was able to capture Sophia at eleven in this portrait. Soon after this shot she lost interest in the American girl dolls. Time slips by quickly and if I had known this would have been one of the last times watching her enjoying this doll and book I would have lingered longer to savor the moment.

Snowstorm

Chris took this shot on one of our four wheel drive outings during a Noreaster. It's one of our favorite things to do. Cruise around while most sane people are tucked away safe and sound in their homes. Appropriately titled "The Snowstorm", it's a slice of real Vermont and one of the images for sale as home or office decor.

Secrets of the Casbah

While in Morrocco in the Casbah, Chris captured this image shooting from the hip.

He titled it "Secrets of the Casbah". His talent for taking shots at the decisive moment continues to impress me besides making me jealous!
