One my favorite things to do is to meet new people and really connect with their spirit . . . one of my least favorite things to do is to chat about myself, but here goes . . .
I live in Ohio with my husband. I teach communication at a local University. My nest is empty . . . my three great kiddos are in college and spreading their wings. Several years ago, when my Mom had cancer and my kids were teenagers, I needed something . . . anything . . . and I found the solace I needed in my camera. Many years of classes, hard work and learning all about Instagram, here I am . . .
A Still Life Photographer and Instagram Content Creator . . . I share beautiful photos of flowers, vintage finds and handmade treasures on Instagram hoping to inspire and connect with people throughout the world. People often ask . . . why flowers . . . because they bring joy! Don’t we all need just a little joy in our lives? The unexpected gifts I discovered are the many new friendships and the ability to share the work of many talented makers.
My work extends beyond florals. I help businesses succeed on Instagram by creating great content through Food and Lifestyle Photography, Instagram Training and Coaching, and Brand Styling. Teaching clients to successfully connect, communicate, and succeed on Instagram is another unexpected gift that I discovered just by following creative heart.
My photos have appeared in Somerset Life, Winter 2017, Bella Grace Magazine, Winter 2016, Somerset Digital Studio, Fall 2014, Somerset Memories, August 2013, Artful Blogging, Aug/Sept/Oct 2013, Somerset Studio Gallery, Summer 2013, and Somerset Apprentice, Fall 2012, Country Living Magazine December 2021, February 2023.
