We are open everyday by appointment during the pandemic. You must call ahead as we only assist one client or family at a time in the studio at this time or we may be out on location. A day or more is recommended to get the best choice of appointment times but the same day could be available depending on our appointments.
You must not be sick and are required to wear a mask during your visit. If we are taking your photo you must keep your mask on until you are in front of the camera. Your mask may be removed only during your session. You must put your mask back on immediately at the conclusion of your photo session before leaving the camera area.
Masks must be worn during the proof selection process.
Hand sanitizer is available and we wipe surfaces between clients.
Dave has not had covid-19 and has been tested.
Thank you for your cooperation.

I was in a scene in this movie, "Saturday Morning", with Joey Piscopo. Joe Piscopo's son, which was shot partially in Westfield. NJ. Joey and George Wendt (Cheers) did a scene right in front of my main Westfield studio at 104 Quimby Street. In another scene I am standing in front of Joey when he enters The Chocolate Bar next to my Studio B building at 114 Quimby Street. It took so long to setup the next scene, I had to leave for a photo shoot, so in the next scene in the coffee shop I disappeared

What can I say, but thank you so much for your time and talent in producing our new campaign materials? The donation is so very important to our work here. I think the range of people that we shot this year helps donors to understand our value.
Ann and Christina enjoyed spending the afternoon with you and commented on your patience and skill. They also mentioned something about your constantly talking about stinky feet, but we'll let that go! :)
Dave, again thanks for everything. We literally couldn't have done it without you!
Most sincerely,
Linda Maggio
