Amanda Baker
Amanda Baker was raised on the east coast of England. In 1988 she sailed across the Atlantic as part of a three-man delivery crew on a 43-ft. yacht. Baker has resided in the BVI ever since. In 2000, she started Virgin Portraits, specializing in children's portraits and wedding photography, and, in 2003, opened The Gallery on Main Street in Tortola. With an emphasis on black and white, infrared and fine art photography, her images reflect the beauty of the British Virgin Islands.
Bobbi Fawcett
Born in Australia, Bobbi Fawcett arrived in the BVI in 1989. Her first experience of the wonders of the BVI was as a crew member/co-owner of a charter boat, introducing charter guests to the delights of the Territory and its pristine waters. Although she has lived in the BVI for many years, it was not until 1997 that she gave up chartering in favour of promoting the BVI to a much wider audience via media sales.
