About Us

Michael W. Thomas has been creating wonderful black & white and color photographs for over 40 years. He proudly served his country in the 173rd Airborne Brigade in Vietnam. Upon his return, he realized how important capturing life is and returned to his favorite hobby of photography.

His photographic career began in New York City and then continued when he relocated to scenic Northeastern Pennsylvania. Michael specializes in Fine Art and Landscape Photography. In 2005, with the help of his wife, Lori, ShadowCatcher Photography was officially    re-born.

Michael is also an avid cyclist, known to some as the "King of Retro Jersey's”, a speedskater, and USPSA  Shooter. 

 Creativity has truly been what has fueled her soul. She has always had an interest in the arts and being creative. As a child she would create clothing for her dolls with scarves, do their makeup and would come up with stories behind all of the looks.  As she grew older, she would sit with her mother and watch her sew beautiful clothing and then was able to sew on her own. This is what led her to the Fashion Institute of Technology in New York City.

​

She has danced since a young age and always loved entertainers and entertainment. Once she met her husband, Michael, she picked up a camera and was hooked. She has been creating memories for family, friends & clients for over 15 years and specializes in Portrait, Event and Wedding Photography. ​

She is also Owner and Head Officiant at

 Ceremonies by Lori. She has worked as a Legal Secretary and Administrative Assistant for more than twenty years and now as an advocate, as both a speaker and a writer,  for Jewish women who are dealing with crisis pregnancies.
