Abstract
We will define two types of quandle polynomials known as the G-family polynomial and the associated quandle polynomial. We will define image subquandle enhancements for these two types of quandle polynomials and apply them to examples of trivalent spatial graphs and handlebody knots. Examples are used to show that the enhancements are indeed stronger invariants.
