Parker Priddy Gallery + Studio

From a press release:

Parker Priddy Gallery + Studio

Parker Priddy Gallery + Studio, located at 43 Rankin Avenue, is a collaborative showroom for Parker J Pfister Photography and Ship to Shore Clothier, the custom gown design label from R. Brooke Priddy. The Gallery + Studio will now be open to the public for retail hours on Fridays and Saturdays from 1:00 p.m. to 8:00 p.m. beginning on Friday, October 3. Expanded days and hours may be announced for the holiday season.

Ship to Shore, founded 14 years ago, has grown into a highly respected and award-winning label of custom, one-of-a-kind gowns. R. Brooke Priddy has been published widely and created commissions for two museum exhibitions in recent years. The retail showroom will feature one-of-a-kind items, including wedding and evening gowns. Avant Garde pieces built for editorial shoots and experimental prototype designs will also be available. The inventory will change on a regular basis, providing a wealth of discoveries for fashion savvy explorers. Visitors can peruse portfolios of Brooke’s custom design work and schedule a one-on-one consultation with the designer for a small fee.

Parker J. Pfister‘s portrait, fine art, and fashion photography has garnered him both awards and respect. Parker is offering unique portraits sessions, merging historical techniques and mediums (some over 100 years old) with modern technologies to create one-of-a-kind pieces that become family heirlooms. Visitors can experience the current gallery exhibition and a range of both editioned and non-editioned collector prints that will be available for purchase. Parker, a celebrated teacher and lecturer, has been published worldwide and named one of the “Top 10 Wedding Photographers in the World” by American Photo.  He is available, by appointment, for consultations.

PARKER + PRIDDY is a bespoke photography firm born of Parker and Brooke’s epic fashion and photography projects. They offer custom personal and commercial services including full service photography and styling.
