History

Established in 1989.

20 years serving the NYC Metropolitan area with portrait and event photography. Artists, actors and authors have sought out John’s courteous professionalism in crafting their image. Westchester families have used him for their special events and children’s portraits. An exhibiting artist himself, Maggiotto has documented the sculptures, paintings, drawings and creative craftwork of many of the other artists in the region. His studio produces many of the fine digital giclee prints seen in area galleries. After teaching for 19 years at the Int’l Ctr. of Photography, John now instructs aspiring photographers at the Dobbs Ferry studio. Lessons are geared to move students along quickly in the demands of digital photography. The business began in Brooklyn and moved to Westchester in 1993. Maggiotto was awarded an artist’s fellowship by NYFA in 1988. His work has appeared in Entertainment Weekly, Spin, Vibe, New York and Sports Illustrated.
