design + photography portfolio

With over 20 years of design experience, I am uniquely qualified to help you bring concepts to reality. I started my career at a copy store, making copies, binding documents and spending every spare moment playing with typesetting software. I then moved on to working at a 1hr photo lab. I began my love affair with photography, Adobe photoshop and the photographic print. My next stop was a commercial pre-press house, where I learned the ins and outs of scanning, proofing, color correcting and preparing files for print.

The early 2000’s were spent raising kids, learning web design and doing freelance work. As the kids got older, I was ready for a new challenge and began photographing weddings and portraits. While I love being a photographer, I think I’m better at helping others grow their business. I love to problem solve and am always trying to push myself to learn new techniques and achieve maximum efficiency in everything I do.

I worked at local photo lab from 2015 to 2020 where I specialized in photo editing and photo restoration. I also designed all of their marketing materials as well as their website. Unfortunately the pandemic ended my time there. I am ready for the next challenge! My ideal position would involve photography, design, and opportunities to learn.
