Meet the Manager

Luisa P.

Manager

Luisa joined The Photographic Art Studio even before there was a retail location. A good friend and great supporter of Connie B (the owner) she quickly became the voice of the studio. You will love her calming and welcoming voice and her enthusiasm as she strives to make you feel at home. She is a creative and quirky photographer who enjoys thinking outside the box with seniors (although she hasn’t asked anyone to sit in front of a trash container yet — Connie has but the photo turned out great!)

Don’t be surprised if she does take a couch out to the railroad station to capture the «awesomeness» that is you. Together with Connie they can come up with some fantastical (our new word) ideas that will make your portraits one of kind and uniquely you.
