A Picture is Worth a Thousand Words

March 6, 2015 by Erica Carpenter Filed Under: News

Here is the third in our series of features on some of our wonderful neighboring businesses in Zionsville. Who knew our little burb is such a mecca for talent?  (Well, we did, of course, and now you do, too).

Casalini Portraits
Speaking of talent, I’m sure many of you locals (and many of you across the US, and perhaps the world, too) are familiar with Tom Casalini’s work.  Over the decades, he has perfected his craft and has become one of the most respected photographers in the Midwest.  How cool is it that we have a world-renowned award-winning photographer as our upstairs neighbor?

The saying “A picture is worth a thousand words” is so very true where Tom Casalini’s work is concerned. He not only captures the physical side of his subjects, but their inner spirits, as well.  His subjects have included individuals young and old, families and pets, and oodles of famous people.  He treats all the same – getting to know them a bit before-hand to find out what really makes them tick so he can capitalize upon that during the shoot.  Here are a couple examples of his work…

And a few portraits of famous Hoosiers…

In addition to being a talented portrait photographer, Tom is fabulous at landscape photography, too.  Check out his private collection to see colors more vivid than reality allows.  And don’t miss out on viewing one of his personal projects of passion, the many photographs featured in the book Ordinary Heroes, which is a collection of Congressional Medal of Honor recipients.

As I said, our shop is definitely surrounded by talent, eh?  By the way, if you have a brand new custom portrait from Casalini Portraits ready for hanging in your home, come in and see us for some accompanying décor.
