Thomas' objective is to encourage his subjects to relax, be themselves, and enjoy the portrait experience, allowing him to capture the pure essence of an individual and the nuances between family members as they interact. His unique approach results in images that are truly classic and compelling, growing in value through the years and becoming his client's most valuable possession.

On my last trip to Charlotte I had the privilege of photographing Christopher Warren Green for the Charlotte Symphony
The photoshoot was a high energy experience. Terri Deboo joined us. She found Mozart's:Sinfonie Concertanti on i tunes performed by Christopher Warren Green in the 80's. He was flattered when his music was filling the room as he entered. This set the tone for a incredible photo shoot.
I was in the presence of a great artist. We made a connection based on the shared passion for our art.

"Souls Beneath and Beyond Autism"
Written by Sharon Rosenbloom
Photography by Thomas Balsamo
Produced by Books that Touch
Published by McGraw Hill
Souls: Beneath & Beyond Autism is a book
project that is committed to portraying individuals with autism from
the inside out. Through the mediums of photography and writing, Souls
will educate and inspire those who receive it by breaking apart
stereotypes associated with autism while illustrating the transforming
power of love. It touches on the collective human experiences of
suffering and redemption while showing a pathway to a profoundly higher
ground of understanding and acceptance. The greater purpose, beyond
autism, is the universal message that from the depths of darkness,
often we find the greatest enlightenment. The individual with autism is
a beautiful metaphor for this belief.

To
see a world through eyes that don't judge. To love with hearts that
don't discriminate. To look at people for who they are. And accept them
for simply that. This is how children and adults with Down Syndrome see
the world. They each have a voice. To be shared. To be celebrated. To
be heard. GiGi's Playhouse and "i have a voice" are based on a series of
miracles that happen every day, and none is greater than the
continued support of the generous souls who believe in our message and share our vision. GiGis Playhouse Photography by Thomas BalsamoDesign by Steve Bagby
