a new life on the way!


We are SO excited at the news from Michael's middle son, Lavar, and his wife, Danielle.
They are expecting their first child, due this fall. Its always been hard to live so far away from our loved ones. Michael and I are both from Cleveland, and that is where most of our family still resides. We hope to get up there in Oct. or Nov. to greet the new grandbaby!! We'll post photos as we access them, even though WE aren't the sonogram photographers.

About Vicki

Vicki Palombo was born into a creative family, musically, theatrically and artistically, (you may have heard of her cousin, Leonard Bernstein), in Cleveland, Ohio. From the moment she clicked her first camera, a dime store Kodak 110, Vicki has thrived at the helm of the shutter. Very few people will recognize her without a camera or two in hand. From the white snow of Buffalo, to the white caps of San Francisco Bay, Vicki has resided in many beautiful cities. Over the past 20 years, she has taught piano, owned a ceramics business, and was a schoolteacher, all the while never letting the camera strap slip away. Vicki sees the beauty and humor in every subject and captures it through her lens.

About Michael

Michael Elliott's enthusiasm for nature is reflected in his images. He has long appreciated classic automobiles and regularly attends car shows. Michael is a 27 year veteran of the U.S. Army. He specializes in photographing models, but has an equal passion for weddings and other family occasions. Also a native from Cleveland,Ohio,
Michael shares a unique point of view with his partner, Vicki, graduating high school the same year. Fate had them meet in Florida in 2006. Together, they will give you photographic memories of a lifetime!

Phoenix Rising

Our gratitude for the gift of life is always at the heart of our work. Like the Phoenix rising from the ashes, we started over from a tragic fire that took our home, our pets and photography studio on January 5, 2009. We know how fragile life is and how precious our moments with loved ones are. We'll help you capture yours, to be appreciated for many decades to come.
