PHOTO DESCRIPTION: Personality Profile Questionnaires Bring Out The Best In Your Graduate. TESTIMONIALS We love our clients and are always ecstatic when they take the time to write to us and tell us how happy they are with their experiences with our studio! If you have worked with us and wish to send us a note, please feel free to drop us an e-mail! We'd love to hear from you too! Joan's work is impeccable. I would recommend her for any portrait work or family photos. Stunning work! ~ Tyrone Schneider We love ya baby! The cast/staff head shots and character shots taken by Joan Bateman-Cowan for the drama productions at Crescent Heights High School are spectacular. Each shot demonstrates a deep understanding of creating a concept for each character in the show. Extraordinary time is spent developing positive working relationships with each student during the photo shoots. Joan creates vivid images used for promotional purposes and for the show’s programs which make each student shine. The photos taken by Joan are true examples of artistry matched with skill. Thousands of community members see the photo’s and remark at the genius of the photography. ~ Jennifer Davies Thank you so much for all the hard work you put into the promotions, such as the photos, posters and window stickers. Everything looked amazing! ~ Amberly Thiessen Gainsboro has done it again! Just wanted to thank the staff at Gainsboro for creating a once in a lifetime experience for us here at Archangel Talent Management and for the band, Mass Undergoe. The photo shoot was an amazing experience for this band, even thought they have done countless photo shoots and have appeared on national television with their music many times. The professionalism and skill of this studio is greater than anything I have ever seen, from family shots to modeling portfolios to band promotions, Gainsboro covers the industry spectrum with a standard that cannot be met by any other competitor! ~ Adam Denoon Gainsboro Studio did all our family portraiture this summer. It was superb! Joan and her wonderful family walked us through Kin Coulee taking shots at all her favorite settings. It is clear Joan is very happy with a camera in hand. She was a true professional and could have snapped photos for hours on end! We had a lot of fun and a great family time that will be just as treasured as the exquisite photos Gainsboro created. ~ Joanne Hamel Joan Bateman understands photography. Her vision goes beyond the cameras viewfinder and captures the essence of her subject. Her portraits are not simply pictures with backgrounds - rather, they are a reflection of the innermost composition of the person fortunate enough to be facing her lens. I highly recommend Joan if you want a portrait that will remain on your wall for many years. ~ Author, Jeff Buick - www.jeffbuick.com I love what you've done here! Nice to see all of your work! I had a great time doing our photo shoot and love, love, love my photos! Worth every penny and I will definitely do it again!!! You're amazing! ~ Jill Tim I had an amazing time. Joan made me feel very relaxed and not so self-concious. She and her husband are very sweet. ~ Jessica Skaggs It was a pleasure to have met you. Your photography work is awesome! Thank you for taking the time out of your busy life to frame my painting! It looked awesome! Thank you for taking an image of my artwork. I will be using this shot in the future for art competitions. Again, it was a pleasure to have met you, and thank you! Cheers ~ Joe Versikaitis - www.versikaitis.com We recently had our daughters formal graduation photos taken through Gainsboro Studio. I cannot express enough how pleased I was with the entire package! On a bit of a prejudice note, our daughter is gorgeous but seriously, Joan brought out her beauty even more through the pictures. I love how they do a personality profile questionnaire at your initial consultation - I believe a good photographer will be able to capture your personality in their pictures and this questionnaire provides an insight for Joan to be able to do that. I think it also helps the photographer to make her subjects more comfortable during the session by knowing some about them. Joan brought out our daughters personality in every one of the photos she took! Overall, I would highly recommend Gainsboro Studio! It was a fabulous experience from beginning to end! ~ Sue Wahl |
