Portrait Studio | Angela Rowlings, Carlos Paronis & DSI

This Founder’s Day, we are making memories for our future —we’re preserving the past, honoring our community, and supporting the future of photography.

We’re thrilled to host a special Portrait Studio event, thanks to the incredible generosity of Digital Silver Imaging and two talented local photographers, Angela Rowlings and Carlos Paronis. These gifted artists are donating their time and creativity to benefit the Griffin Futures Fund, and we couldn’t be more grateful.

Whether you’re looking to update your family portrait, snap a keepsake with friends, or immortalize your beloved pet, this is your chance to do it in style—and for a great cause.

Here’s what you can expect:

• A professional 20-minute portrait session in a mobile studio set up by Digital Silver Imaging
• A high-quality print to take home, plus a digital file for sharing
• All proceeds go directly to support the Griffin Museum of Photography

Spots are limited—reservations are recommended, but walk-ins are welcome!
