Every Sunday, we turn the spotlight on some great creatives. This week, we have Lori Prashker-Thomas and Michael W. Thomas!
Michael has been creating black and white and color photographs for over 40 years. He served his country in Vietnam as a proud member of the 173rd Airborne Brigade and upon his return, realized how vital capturing life is. This led him to returning to his favorite hobby — photography.
For Lori, creativity fuels her soul. When she met Michael, she picked up a camera and was hooked. She’s been creating memories for family, friends, and clients for over 15 years and specializes in Headshot and Portrait Photography and Event and Wedding Photography.
Together, they are the husband and wife duo behind ShadowCatcher Photography, LLC. While they started with taking photos of friends and family, they have expanded their services to include professional events, commercial sessions, commissioned fine art photographs, and so much more.
While they make a great team, they work very differently. Michael can see landscape and architecture in a way Lori cannot. Michael can sit for hours to get the right lighting for a photo, while Lori works a bit differently. She loves to photograph people. She always sees the beauty in others and shows that with natural, fun photos.
Michael is often inspired by the land, earth, and lighting. He’ll sit for hours to take the landscape in and figure out the best way to photograph it. For Lori, she is inspired by the stories and backgrounds of the people she takes photos of.
For them, being creative means new possibilities, discoveries, experimentation, and self-expression. Those aspects are different for each individual, which challenges Lori and Michael every project.
You can follow Lori and Michael through their ShadowCatcher Photography pages on Facebook, Instagram, and their website.
