Photographer obtains top honour
By Business News Staff
PRESCOTT - A local photographer has become a member of
an elite group.
Christine Endicott has achieved Licentiate Professional
Photographer of Ontario (LPPO) status.
Endicott has worked as a professional portrait
and wedding photographer for several years; her business is called
Portraits by Christine Endicott. In order to qualify for LPPO status,
Endicott submitted for judging 10 portraits of brides and grooms, families,
couples and dancers. Some of those portraits were created using studio
lights on location; others were taken outdoors using natural light. The
judges were five Master Photographers from Toronto and Ottawa.
Endicott said she was surprised and thrilled to achieve
the special status on her first attempt. In addition to studying
portrait photography with the Professional Photographers of America
in Atlanta, she has received support and guidance from Master Photographer
Robin Spencer of Nepean.
As a professional photographer working in a small
town, Endicott does "a little bit of everything." Her portrait clients
include wedding couples, local families, figure skaters, sports teams
and other groups. The satisfaction that comes from creating something
people will cherish for generations is "a special feeling," according
to Endicott.
"You're with people at the happiest moments of their
lives," she said. "It is a really rewarding profession."
Endicott also does commercial photography. She worked
for more than a decade as a journalist and is a former editor of The
Leeds and Grenville Business News and The Prescott Journal.
Endicott's portfolio was on display at a shop in downtown
Prescott. A portrait of her eldest daughter, Kelly Anne, is on display
in November at the Brockville Arts Centre as part of a juried exhibit.
