We were incredibly busy in the studio from August to December 2103. As a result we have generated lots of new work so we just added a tear-sheet section to our website entitled 'Campaigns'. Please check it out soon and you can get a glimpse of what we have been creating! http://ntphoto.com/campaigns/ Read More

Being Thankful
The last day of 2013 is here. I want to pause and thank all the wonderful people who have been part of my world this year. There are so many of them. The great people I call on when I need a helping hand in the studio or on a location, the vendors who help me keep my gear running in top form, my clients who share their creativity and ideas with me, my church family who I serve and who support me spiritually, and most of Read More
Head-shots for the Fortune 500
I was on location yesterday at a Fortune 500 company doing head-shots of the executives who had flown in from all over the world for an annual meeting. I really enjoy meeting and working with people. It was a treat to have some time with over 40 busy executives, helping them take a breath from their busy day, get some pampering from my hair and makeup stylist Kathleen, and share a smile with me. I enjoyed meeting them all Read More
Northside Deck Shoot
The studio has been rocking since this summer and it shows no signs of stopping. We are very grateful for this abundance of work and we are putting our noses to the grindstone and creating beautiful images with great people for fabulous clients from Chicago to Texas to Boston, and a few other places in between. Here are a few photos from a deck shoot this summer. We did a lot of work for a client from Chicago shooting Read More
Recent Activity
Sorry for being so delinquent in posts on our blog. We have been incredibly busy, which we are very grateful for and happy about. So now we are trying to do a little catch-up and let you know what we have been up to. We have been working both in the studio and on location for both long-term clients and new clients. Some work will be advertising for nationally branded companies, some is food packaging that you can see on Read More
New Image
Here is the latest image I created for the portfolio. I was inspired by the beauty and simplicity of a strawberry and wanted to make a mouth watering image. I hope you like it. We have sent it out as an email to our database and received quite a few reply's from clients who love the image. Can you tell we are ready for summer? Read More
Museum of Fine Art – Boston
A few weeks ago Debbie, Sophia and I took a trip into Boston to go to the Museum of Fine Art. Our wonderful consultant Selina gave us a membership this year and we have been excited about this great excuse to have a nice day out. Our daughter Sophia has been the one pushing the most, asking every weekend if THIS could be the weekend we go in to the museum. My favorite exhibit was the Samurai. The amount of detail that Read More
Three days of Food Packaging Photography
We have just wrapped up a great 3 day food packaging project. I put the finishing touches on the images this morning and sent them off. I also photographed the products in their frozen state for the art director to use in layouts. First thing this morning we got an email from the client saying, "This was a challenging shoot but I was pleased to see the sustained energy and willingness to keep pushing forward with Read More
Test Shooting- Editorial Food
We have recently been doing some test shooting and creating some beautiful editorial food images. We had the chance to work with a great new food stylist from Portland, Maine - Vanessa Seder and are hoping to work with her some more soon. We also worked with Sunny Ricks again - she is a regular here at the studio and we love collaborating with her. Here are a few images from the set that Deb took with her little Read More
Set Building
Last week I was busy doing some minor set building. We have been prepping to shoot some test shots with some new food stylists. We are going to be creating some beautiful new editorial food images to compliment our portfolio and our food packaging shots. We have a large quantity of props but not as many surfaces as we would like so it was time to use those artistic muscles in a slightly different way than when I look Read More
