Melissa Shanahan, Chelsea Rose (Amy Rose)

Melissa Amy Shanahan and Chelsea Rose Nye are the powerhouse duo—hey, we’re just telling it like it is—behind Amy Rose Photography. With two decades of professional experience, Melissa and Chelsea bring a united vision and next-level passion to every single project. They just click. Pun intended. After years spent in corporate communication, Melissa left to chase a more fulfilling creative dream in photography. Chelsea picked up her first camera when she was a kid, and kicked off her professional career at a local portrait studio at 16. Melissa and Chelsea’s backgrounds couldn’t be more different, but they’re absolutely in sync in their dedication to creating impactful and—we’ll just say it—kick-ass imagery. When they’re not working with clients (and making magic on set), Melissa and Chelsea are grabbing life by the you-know-whats, adventuring, globe-trotting it up, and drinking in new cultures. Clients include Wayfair, Birch Lane, All Modern, Joss & Main, Berkshire, Lucidity Lights, Wolverine Worldwide, Perigold, Brilli, Innocor, Rafi Nova, Pacific Retail Capital Partners, and True Scoops. Amy Rose Photography works locally out of New York and Boston, and is looking to expand to opportunities beyond.

Christopher Beauchamp

Christopher Beauchamp is a Connecticut based location photographer & cinematographer specializing in dynamic location portraits and dramatic adventure sports imagery for advertising, editorial and corporate clients. Christopher’s success is the result of his aptitude as a creative visual problem solver. His experience stretches from international pharmaceutical campaigns and feature film productions to start up editorials and small business marketing as well as national brands, magazines, corporate, healthcare and EDU clients. Whether it’s a big production shoot or a simple concept that requires high caliber imagery, Christopher’s years of experience creating compelling visuals in virtually every conceivable circumstance combined with his emphasis on collaboration and being a team player allow him to maximize the potential of any shoot. When not behind the lens for a client he can usually be found chasing adventure and using his creative eye to find new, previously un-climbed lines on obscure bits of rock and ice. He is also rumored to be semi-secretly honing his roller disco dancing skills.

James Rajotte

I am a native of Pennsylvania, but I have been living and working as a photographer in Spain since 2011. Before that, I was a Visiting Professor at Rochester Institute of Technology. I specialize in portrait-based stories and campaigns, but I also shoot a lot of reportage-style imagery, automobiles and short films. My personal work normally stems from things that are a part of my life in one way or another, and represent a curiosity that I have about people. It is this curiosity that makes me want to keep being a photographer. I also love to travel. I am fluent in English and Spanish.

Zave Smith

Exuberant and poignant, philosophical and passionate, Zave Smith’s photographs capture the tangible pleasures and tactile experiences of life. Zave has a special feeling for personality that suffuses his work.

MJ Sugrue

Exotic places, live music and unique, thoughtful people are some of the things that inspire me. I consider, I observe, I listen, I read (loved this), I binge (currently this). I have a favorite radio station. I grow some of my own food and share it with friends. And I write. My background is documentary stills, but creating original work from the depths of my mind has been equally rewarding, and is now taking up increasing amounts of my time and interest. If I really need to zone out, I might be found swimming (formerly here) or building a table, meditating with the steady rhythms of the orbital sander. I’m a dual citizen of Ireland and the US, but I don’t love borders, and certainly not the walls that delineate them. I was born in Detroit and raised just north, but Austin was equally formative. Home is now on the edge of the great wide-open of west Marin in the San Francisco Bay.

Inti St. Clair

Inti St. Clair is a lifestyle photographer. Hire her. You’ll have a blast working with her—it’s hard not to when you’re around her positive energy and infectious laugh. You’ll get all the shots you need, plus many more that you didn’t even know you wanted.  Want to get to know Inti better? • Ask about life in a teepee. • Ask about flying shotgun with the Blue Angels. • Ask about the countries she’s explored (55 & counting). • Ask about sheep shearing. • Ask about the shoot that resulted in wedding bells & babies. • Ask why her Boston Cream Pie is…infamous. • Ask about swimming with sharks.

Robert Holland

Grew up on an island – still lives on one. Has proudly helped raise three amazing children. Loves challenging work. Doesn’t get rattled. Loves negative space and positive people. Visualizes every moment of his life, which he considers a bit of a curse – except when working. Started out as a marine biologist. Creates innocent slice of life imagery or production intensive shoots. Over the years has worked from camera cars, helicopters, camera boats, rigged remotes, scaffolds, cranes, floating in the middle of the ocean – and his own two legs. Working out of South Florida, Robert also has a full production company to support his still and director work. He has done major shoots for Coca-Cola, Budweiser, Yamaha, Ford, Cigna, as well as extensive shooting for marine, tourism, recreation, health care, home & garden and pharmaceutical clients. One of his strengths is simultaneous still and motion productions.

Peter Valli (PCV Photographic Services)

I’m a big fan of "big"; events, endeavors, accomplishments, finishes. Things that inspire me. A classic movie, the Olympics, world records, 100 story buildings, triumphs of engineering, big achievements of any sort fuel a drive in me. Knowing a person or entity persevered through an onslaught of challenges to deliver the goods makes me want to be part of something. Capturing similar successes brings me an incredible sense of satisfaction. Weird I know. There’s more to learn on my site. See what you think, if you’re curious and have a minute.
