Photography – macabre and beautiful all at once!

If you think that macabre can be beautiful, too, please view my photographic adventures – all that are cemeteries, graveyards, creepy dolls and abandonment / urban exploration. Of these various explorations, I am most drawn to the exploration of cemeteries and graveyards – they are full of history, amazing art, mystery, and stories. Stories of individuals and communities of those who are laid to rest there. My cemetery explorations have evolved from wanting to get that most creative photo, to also just documenting unique finds and doing research on those that I visit. 

 Design

For a period of four to five years, I worked with two golf course management companies and focused on their print needs. From cart signs, events, lessons, menus and overall course information.

I created the logo for this newcomer, successful play/entertainment destination in New Jersey. Also, created various print collateral.

Since my children were young, I found myself volunteering my design skills for many community forums - PTO events and the yearbook for school, my church and my local Historical Society of which I am a Trustee, where I design program and event flyers, signage for presentations and displays and the quarterly newsletter. Other historic organizations have reached out to me for design work, as well. The book above, Shall We Gather is a 177 page book, I designed , laid out myself and saw through to vendor release.
