Tonya deCroce is currently traveling the globe in an effort to bring back to life the works and the stories of her grandfather – Denver portrait photographer Edward Angelo deCroce. She met with the curators of the Photography International Hall of Fame in St. Louis Mo. last week. She meets with Hassleblad in Gothenburg Sweden today...
Thank you, thank you, thank you, Eddie. What memories you’ve stirred up. I plan to spend quite a bit of time with your blog. Your parents would be so proud of you for both the tributes you pay them, and for the artistry and technical quality of your photography. This made my day. — Arthur
Thank you Arthur. And now, you made my day!
What an amazing legacy! Seeing your fathers work again…remembering the portraits in the window of his studio as we walked by. His work was art in it’s highest form. I remember the son, with a camera, always a camera. The son had an eye for beauty and captured light in ways that inspired me. I am honored to call you friend. From a very young age till now, your work delights and challenges! The apple didn’t fall far from the tree Edward! Amazing!
Thank you Lynn. It was a fun subject to write about.
I thoroughly enjoyed reading this blog. I am on the hunt for one of Edward Angelo’s works from about 1968, which he named “little girl blue”. A copy also hung in the Normandy French restaurant in Denver.
Do you know the whereabouts of his gallery works?
He was an amazing man and photographer!
