About VIP
Visual Image Photography was started in 1978 by Tom Hayes. His father William Hayes opened a portrait studio in Shorewood, WI in 1950. Our goal since we began has been to take the best picture possible every time we press the shutter. In 2016, Tom's daughter Courtney became the new owner of VIP when he retired. The foundation of being committed to creating beautiful portraits continues to be a family tradition for over 75 years.
Our work culture is built on a team oriented mindset that has fun and brings a smile to the job everyday. Teaching new photographers the skills to create beautiful portraits, and helping our current staff to continue developing their skills is important to our company. Our team is people oriented, socially connected, and fun to work with.
