Thom Rouse and Chris Richman

Thom Rouse began his career as a portrait and commercial photographer in 1994 based near Chicago. Now living in Connecticut, he divides his time between commercial, fine art and commissioned fine art images His conceptual fine art utilizes real world photographs blended and manipulated to create an alternative to real world perception. Thom also lectures and teaches workshops on topics ranging from Photoshop as an artist’s tool, visual literacy and lighting and posing for figure studies. Thom’s work has been exhibited throughout the United States as well as Canada, China, Japan, Korea, and Europe.

Chris Richman is an award-winning photojournalist and fine art photographer, is 7-time PPA Photographer of the Year, has earned the PPA Imaging Excellence Medallion, is a PPA Approved Juror and is a PPNC 2-time Photographer of the Year. She is a recipient of the PPNC Service Award, the ASP Service Medallion, and the PPA National Award.

Her twenty years as a senior research scientist, her decades of teaching and leadership in the informal science education arena, her years of editorial sports and event photography, and her deep dive into macro and micro photography give her an eye for precision, composition and story-telling.

Chris loves teaching and is a mentor, a frequent speaker, and loves being a judge for the teachable moments.
