Professional Services in Boise

Cindy Sherman developed a love for photography at a young age and, after working as a professional photographer since 1980, opened her own studio in 1985. Cindy specializes in portraits of families, high-school seniors, expectant mothers, and pets at her studio, which has indoor settings and a 1-acre outdoor portrait garden with plenty of photogenic settings including a waterfall, a castle-style wall, and a crashed UFO. She also travels to local homes and other venues to take on-location portraits and wedding action shots.

The skilled archivists at MAD Technologies accept old media and document formats via mail or in-store drop off, giving families and organizations a hassle-free means of preserving cherished content that happens to live on obsolete formats. Elderly books become digitized epics, and grainy home movies recorded onto Beta or 8mm film are reborn in pixels, all with customization options and lightning-quick turnaround. While digital material should last longer than its analog predecessors, MAD Technologies' staff plays it safe–technicians automatically archive and store all images and video, in the event that discs should be damaged or run away from home in their rebellious teenage years.

3 Girls Gourmet was forged when the women behind 3 Girls Catering—two of them sisters, one a close friend—decided to open a brick-and-mortar café to further celebrate their love of fresh, healthy foods. To this end, the trio gathers organic, locally grown ingredients when possible, and fills a menu with gluten-free and vegan options, such as hummus platters and vegan lentil soup. Focaccia bread baked fresh daily wraps around Sammiches such as the salami-stuffed Italian Stallion, or sits next to plates of fresh salad. Throughout meals, diners can sip on fair-trade coffees, organic teas from Café Moto, and complimentary spa water infused with cucumbers and lemon.

When photographer Aubrey Brower captures an artful image through her lens, she isn't quite satisfied. After snapping a mixture of posed and candid shots, she heads to her computer to subtly brighten colors, correct flaws, and reframe subjects for the most striking, polished final product that could possibly adorn a mantle, online profile, or voodoo shrine. With passion and an eye-for-detail, she hopes to yield vivid engagement prints, family portraits, or boudoir images that have the power to transport viewers back to memorable moments in time.
