photography

BoB Bloch PhotograPhy The homeowners first met photographer Bob Bloch when he created their family portrait, which now adorns one of the walls in their home’s library. It’s easy to see why they were so happy with his work. Several years ago, Bob began to expand his business into architectural photography, including a great deal of work creating virtual home tours. Bloch’s goal is to convey a scene so completely to viewers that they actually feel as though they are standing there in the room with him. He works extremely hard to make the finished product a showcase of the environment.

Bob Bloch Photography is based in Frisco, Colorado, and has been in business since 2002. Bloch is a past president of the National Academy of Photography. Visit bobblochphotography.com or call 970.668.4773 for more information.
