Photo Shoot with Tedy

October 31, 2009 - In-Studio Modeling Photo Session with Tedy

Tedy came to the studio on Saturday to do a portfolio for modeling. I think he is on the right track. I loved this Black & White shot.

The shot below reminds me of a high end men's clothing store image.

How's this image above for a screen shot on a movie built around crime! Convincing!

Nice job Tedy. Best of luck on your modeling journey.

Guess Who??? Yeap!

September 26, 2009 - The Guess Who at The Durham Fair


I went to the Durham Fair on Saturday. Just to see The Guess Who. No other reason but to bring me back in time, as the band played on and on. It was fun. They were great. It felt good listening to: New Mother Nature, Laughing, Share the Land, These Eyes, No Time, American Woman, No Sugar Tonight, Undun and so many more.......

Savanna's First Studio Session

September 12, 2009 - Photo Session with Savanna and her parents.

Bobby and Laura welcomed Savanna into the world in August and I had the pleasure of meeting her for the first time September 12, 2009.

Vinod's Marriage Proposal

August 15, 2009 - Photo Session with Vinod


Vinod called the Studio and asked me if I was able to take some time to photograph him for a very special assignment. You see, Vinod is from India and his mom and dad are living there, while he is living here in the U.S. The plan is to find a wonderful girl from India that would be interested in marriage, so Vinods parents asked, "why don't you send us some new pictures?"

VIP Studios was honored to have the opportunity to photograph Vinod for his parents.










Look out ladies! This guy is a good catch!!!!













I had a great time with Vinod. He was easy to work with. Vinod said he is hoping I can do his wedding when the time comes. I am hoping too!

Dog Gone Good Photo Shoot!

August 2, 2009 - Photograph Pet Session for the Gosselin Family

By request, I came in on a Sunday afternoon to do a photo session of two members of the Gosselin family. They were very well behaved and didn't mind having their photo taken. Yes, I did a pet session that worked out pretty dog gone good!























On the left side is Kookie, and on the right is Lizette.


The Gosselin family were very pleased with the images and the afternoon went over without any doggy accidents! It was fun!

Giving Thanks and Gratitude

July 28, 2009 - Time for Mom and Dad

I was talking with a new friend recently and she asked if I still had my parents around? I said yes. She commented "how lucky you are to still have them in your life". It made me stop and think, I am so lucky to still have them with me. My mom is 85 and my dad is 83. I think giving thanks and gratitude to God here and now would be very appropriate for me. Thank you God for two wonderful parents! This was one of the Father's Day pictures taken in June. Truly, you can see, I have been blessed.

Father's Day with Dad

June 21, 2009 - Father's Day with my Dad

It was nice to spend time with my dad on Father's Day. I brought my camera with me and took pictures of us together and also with the rest of my family too. My dad is in a nursing home due to diabetic complications, but he is learning to adjust after being there for some time now. This picture was taken by my sister for me. I'm glad to still have my father around with us.

My "camera-shy" Dad :)

It's Official! My New Studio Sign!

June 11, 2009 - New studio sign went up today!


Well, It's official! We finally got our logo! Special thanks to Judy Tourangeau, u.k.a. JT Art & Design in Naugatuck, CT (203-577-7233) for designing my identity branding for me. She was great to work with and very reasonable. We went over a few ideas together and I decided on this one for VIP Studios. After we finished the logo it was time to make the new business cards, stationary, and of course, the storefront sign. I love the new look! The sign went up today with the expertise work of Tony Perugini from J & J Signs and Graphics here in Waterbury (203-768-4926).

Need something done right? These are the companies to call!
Great job to both of you!!
