Sylvia Stagg-Giuliano
Sylvia Stagg-Giuliano is a commercial photographer and digital artist specializing in executive portraiture, commissioned fine art portraiture, and composite photo illustration. Her experience includes 11 years as a staff shooter at a Fortune 500 company, a stint as technical color lab instructor at the New England School of Photography, and a term as president of Commercial/Industrial Photographers of New England. For the first decade of her career, Sylvia applied her strong technical background to the creation of wildly surrealistic imagery using darkroom processes such as cross processing, sandwiching negatives, and sophisticated printing techniques. Later, as an early adopter of digital methods, Sylvia began employing advanced PhotoShop wizardry to realize her artistic vision.
Today, Sylvia uses digital tools in all aspects of her work, whether creating art for a gallery exhibit, or adding subtle refinements to a family or executive portrait.
She both resides and maintains a fully equipped studio in the historic Fort Point district of Boston, and is an active member of the Fort Point Arts Community.
Sylvia’s work has been widely exhibited in galleries in the United States and South American. Selected prints from her series Caminata al Pasado are part of the permanent collection of the Museum of Art and Anthropology in her native Guayaquil, Ecuador.

“Hi Sylvia,
Thanks so much for yesterday’s class. I had a great time, learned a lot, and am inspired to get back into photography.
I cleaned up a few of my shots for you. I added one to the DPA webpage too (I think).
All my best,”

“Hi Richard and Sylvia,
Thanks very much for a great workshop. The museum was a fascinating place and I enjoyed practicing some shots, especially getting some of those more abstract shots.
Sylvia – thanks for your advice, and special thanks for looking through my photos and critiquing them so thoughtfully. It was so very helpful.
Richard you asked for a few shots.”

“Sylvia,
Thank you for the tips and feedback. I agree that the only special one was the wheel/spokes. And of course I can see ways to improve it.”
