Every Picture Helps Tell Your Story

March 29, 2014 Carol Robidoux Leave a comment

I have learned as a multi-media journalist the importance of being able to tell a story across multiple platforms. Words have power. Images have power. Together, they tell a depth of story that one or the other alone cannot. Below is a slideshow of some of the images I’ve photographed to accompany stories that range in scale from a personal victory or struggle, to the power of community engagement and triumph; a new business launch or a town’s moment of collective grief.

You can see more examples of my photographic work here.

Colleen Goulding and the abused race horse she rescued from a kill pen, Lacey Mae, with Lilly Grace.

Firefighters traditionally place a funeral card inside their hats.

Saving Lacey, literally, turned out to be a happy accident, not only for the battered cast-away race horse that’s learned to trust again, but for Colleen Goulding, who got way more than she bargained for — two horses for the price of one — the day she brought Lacey home from a New Jersey kill pen.
