Testimonials
"During my senior year, I interviewed and received a job with Champine Photography out of Brookville, Ohio. In addition to portraiture, the team works closely with five area schools and covers everything from graduations to proms, and athletic competitions. Since I began my career at the studio, I have had the opportunity to work with countless couples, seniors, families, and businesses. My work has been featured in magazines, on social media, and in textbooks and print materials for the Engineering department at the University of Dayton. I have been working with the team to rebrand and expand the business to a full service studio where we will be specializing in senior portraiture & weddings. I would like to thank Mr. Baker and the entire staff at MVCTC for all the opportunities they have given me!"

"After graduating from MVCTC and Miamisburg High School, I attended Sinclair Community College for the Small Business Management program. Then began my career at AGI Studios (www.agicreative.com), a commercial photography and video production studio in Dayton, Ohio as a production assistant and went on to work my way through multiple roles. Along the way, I fell in love with the team, the culture, and the work and ended up buying the studio from its founders in 2019. Now, as the studio’s President, I'm the leader of a team of image makers who are equally committed to pursuing creative excellence."
