My name is Rich Colicchio and I’m a New England-based photographer practicing travel, HDR (not the weird, other-worldly kind), macro, landscape, architecture, bird and creative photography. And you may notice recurring characters that command the attention of my camera more than any other: my Yellow Labs Toby & Charlie – because they’re awesome.
