The Purple Ladies: Meet the Purple Ladies

Welcome to the Artistic Images of Canton official blog! We've been in business for almost 5 years now. Because of the purple clothes we often wear we have come to be known as "The Purple Ladies." We understand that many of our clients are bloggers, so we've decided to maintain this blog for them, and to exercise our brains!

We do a lot of things here at Artistic Images, including fine portraiture, custom framing, graphic design, art reproduction, and large format printing. Marianne just came back from a Connecticut photographers Ladies' Day, and she decided a blog would be a great way to keep our clients informed. So here we go.

This week I'm (Marianne) psyched about our collaboration with The Hair Loft in Avon (860-674-9460--Their website is under construction). We are doing a Mother's Day Special--The Hair Loft is doing all that great pampering stuff like hairdos, makeup and manicures and we are going to be photographing the beautiful ladies when they are all done. This should be lots of fun and a great Mother's Day gift for any mom or mom-to-be and even greater to do as a mother/daughter affair.

Also this week Tom (our fantastic employee) and Marianne will be attending a Photoshop seminar in Boston hosted by Kelby Training Seminars. These are some of the best Photoshop seminars one can take. So Tom and Marianne are pretty psyched about Wednesday's trip to Boston. Marianne has been to about fifteen Photoshop seminars and this will be Tom's second (although he is very advanced with Photoshop). We should come back with lots of neat tricks in our bag.

On Tuesday and Wednesday Marianne will be photographing more dogs at Roaring Brook Pet Care Center in Canton. For the past year we have been photographing all of the dogs in training at the Roaring Brook Canine College--training classes conducted by trainer Wendy Shaw. I've got to say we get some awesome portraits of these dogs. Take a look at these photos:
