Welcome to Portraits of Pelham!

Posted on Jan 14, 2010

Welcome to Portraits of Pelham! Thank you so much for visiting.

Consider this my first blog post for Portraits of Pelham. I thought that I would take this opportunity to introduce myself, and this new project.

My name is Bryan Caporicci, and I am a professional portrait and wedding photographer in the Niagara Region. You can visit my photography website, at www.bcapphoto.com, and you can visit my photography blog at www.bcapblog.com.

My fiance (who is also my assistant), Allison, and I, recently purchased a house in Fonthill, and so we moved our home-based-studio to the wonderful city of Pelham.

We have discovered so many wonderful treasures, met so many amazing people and stumbled upon some incredible talent, here, in Fonthill. As an attempt to discover more, uncover more, and meet more, we have launched our new portrait project – Portraits of Pelham.

Portraits of Pelham will feature portraits created of members of the community who reflect the essence and character of Pelham – whether it be through their volunteer commitments, their business contributions, or the unique nature of their personal vision. Each portrait will be taken “on-location”, in an environment that uniquely represents the individual, such as at their home or their place of business. Each portrait will be accompanied with a brief “biography” of this individual, explaining their place in the community.

I am hoping to be posting at least one portrait, every week, for the next 52 weeks, to this website. You can look forward to (virtually) meeting and seeing some amazing people, some incredibly hard-working business owners, and some awe-inspiring, gifted artists.

I hope that you enjoy the portraits here, on Portraits of Pelham, and I hope that you are able to discover a little bit more about the town that I am proud to call home, and the wonderful people that I am proud to call my neighbors.

If you are interested in having a portrait created for Portraits of Pelham, or if you would like to recommend an individual for Portraits of Pelham, please contact me via e-mail at bryan@bcapphoto.com.

Thanks, and enjoy!

Bryan

    Bryan, great project! I’ve been thinking along similar lines for my hometown/area (Waterdown/Flamborough) but too many other things to get caught up on first. I’ll be checking back! Love the first couple of images – great job!

    Hi Brian,

    I absolutely loved your “Portraits of Pelham”. My family is from Fonthill and I recently relocated to Fenwick. I absolutely love the small town coziness of Fonthill. Your portraits are a great beginning to a wonderful story that I look forward to reading over the next 52 weeks! What a great way to introduce yourself to the community.

    Sincerely,
    Heather
