_  I started designing my Still Life Art as a compliment to go with my clients' pictures of their children. I had been a children's photographer in Seattle specializing in black and white hand tinted photography.( I love always loved the look of combining art with photography.)  Time after time I would hear, "We love our pictures of our children, we just can't seem to find any art to go with it." That's where the idea began.  I would design my Still Life Art Collection with the same European Dream-like Vintage style that I specialized in with my Children's Photography. With each image I try to create a magical timeless feel along with inspirational words. This has now become my specialty, Fine Art Photography with Bling! 
  Thirty two years ago I began my Professional Artist career as a Graphic Designer and Art Director in Los Angeles for 15 years. In 1991 we moved to Seattle and I began taking black and white photographs of my children and then hand tinting them with oils. (A talent passed down through my Great Grand Father.) That's when my career as a children's photographer began. In 2009 I fell in love and married a Montana man.  I now live on a bluff overlooking the Missouri River, surrounded by the most breath-taking scenery and wildlife.  The perfect setting for constant inspiration for creating my Fine Art Photography!
