Capturing pixels in strange and interesting ways since the age of sixteen, Suzette Troche-Stapp a.k.a "the glitterguru" has been working in digital imaging since its inception in the 1980's. Recognized throughout her industry, Suzette was named one of the "Top 40 Photoshop Experts" by manufacturer Wacom, and was also awarded the "Guru Award" for excellence in Photoshop by NAPP. For 2 years in a row this glitterguru has been nominated for the "Photoshop Hall Of Fame". Currently her images can be seen in the national ad campaign for Dynalite, and many editorial features. Her celebrity images have been broadcast to millions on shows like "The View", "The Late Show", and "Kathy Griffin's Life on the D-List"...


Along with her internationally exhibited, award winning photographic work, the glitterguru is also an author. Her tutorials and articles have been published in many magazines, both in the US and overseas for over a decade, and her award winning book, "The glitterguru on Photoshop: from Concept to Cool" was honored with the coveted Designers Bookshelf Award for "Most Exciting New Photoshop Book" and is now published in three languages. Many of the glitterguru's images can also be seen in the book "Digital Fashion Photography" alongside those of Patrick De Warren, Enrique Badulescu and many other world-renowned fashion photographers.

The glitterguru’s latest endeavor is her new educational center with partner Dave Weathers called “Timbuktu Studios” , where she teaches world class workshops to help further other artists work.
