Meghan Paddock Farrell
Portland
Meghan Paddock Farrell grew up in a small New England town in Rhode Island. Photography has always been a part of her life. She lived in a house with a dark room in the basement that her father built, filled with chests of glass negatives and daguerreotypes of family members stemming back hundreds of years.
These old photographs made a huge impact. Meghan was lucky enough to go to a high school with a photography department. By the time she got to college she knew exactly what she wanted to do with her life.
She received a BFA in Photography in 2001 and has been working in the field ever since. She has spent the past 14 years honing her photoshop skills as a retoucher for some of the top photographers in the business. Her passion for photography, combined with her retouching skills, make her a powerhouse.
