Welcome to Opalescence Photography™. We are based in Wrentham, Massachusetts and simply stated, have a passion for photography that grows deeper with every image captured. We have switched entirely to the digital format using Canon EOS cameras and love the flexibility the digital darkroom offers.

We are willing to do most any form of photography ranging from commercial, product, portraiture, family, nature, and editorial; to model portfolios, special events, corporate, photos for print and photo journalism. We do both on location and studio work.

Please use the "contact" links provided if you wish to book or discuss an engagement or click here.
