Capturing Moments: Curtis Sprague's Journey into Photography

Curtis Sprague, a familiar face at WoMPA, brings more than just his camera skills to the table. As a member with an artist studio, Curtis has transformed his passion for photography into a thriving business, Curtis Sprague Photography. Nestled in Suite 262, his studio serves as a hub for commercial and portrait photography, offering custom portraiture, product photography, and commercial headshots.

A Creative Haven:

Since joining WoMPA in June 2023, Curtis has found solace in the creative environment it provides. "The space just feels creative when you walk in. The people are friendly. My options for photographic backgrounds are numerous. What's not to love about WoMPA?" he expresses.

Beyond the Lens:

When Curtis isn't behind the camera, he's often found pursuing his hobbies. From caring for his horse to maneuvering remotely controlled aircraft, he embraces activities that fuel his creativity and adventurous spirit. He's also a proud pet parent to two dogs, Baloo and Delilah, with Baloo occasionally gracing the studio with his presence—a friendly 110-pound teddy bear.

A Background in Service:

Before delving into the world of photography, Curtis served in law enforcement for over three decades. With stints as a SWAT officer and a retired Federal Air Marshal, his journey into entrepreneurship marks a bold transition from a life of service to one of creative freedom.
