Lauren Gilhooley Lauren is a photographer living in Middlesex. She specializes in portraiture and nature photography. The name of her studio, Aviva Photography (a Hebrew word that can mean renewal or life), is a tribute to that which she believes: All life is a series of new beginnings. Whether it it the awakening of a garden in the springtime, the birth of a child, or the moment of bliss when two people bind their souls to one another, all elements of life can be transforming - can bring us renewal. All are worthy of capturing - not only in the mind's eye, but also through the eye of the camera lens. |
Nicole Kircher In my photography I am concerned with focus, the conceptual and physical meaning of the word, and how both meanings are held within an image. I am interested in how my record of a place shapes my memory and in the artist's process of selective history and romantic hindsight. My most recent body of work is a collection of images from time spent living and travelling around Asia.

For the past 10 years part of a group working in behalf of Montpelier's rivers, including cleaning the riverbeds of trash, she has become captivated by their power, beauty and danger. Immersion in the rivers - a baptism of sorts - inspired a series of painting meditations on the rivers that meet in downtown Montpelier, the Winooski and the North Branch.
