Here's the short story-- I was trained as a fine art painter and have shown and sold my paintings through galleries for over 20 years. I taught Art in school for 13 years. I started shooting photos professionally in 2003, beginning with newspaper assignments. I did work for newspapers, magazines, and stock photography, which led to shooting models, which led to shooting portraits. When I started shooting senior portraits, it all came together for me. I was able to meld the art, working with young people, and photography into a fun and rewarding career. It all clicked, and my photography business took off. I left my teaching career behind in 2009 and have been building my senior portrait photography business. In 2014 I merged my love of Old Hollywood with my current passion--The Classic Beauty Project. I feel blessed to be so fortunate. |

My struggle is to put this into words.
Every time I catch a glimpse of one I am touched by its warmth and light.
As the sun plays across them they seem to almost move. They reach out and
invite me to relax by a bubbling creek or take a walk down a quiet path in
the woods. I am humbled and inspired by the talent represented in each
piece. I am told that there have been studies that prove fresh flowers can
actually increase our happiness and improve our emotional well being…that is
exactly what these paintings do for me. I own seven of Todd’s paintings and
I would own 20 more if I could. They have turned my home into a haven of
beauty and relaxation. |
