Botanical prints with a modern twist
Making photographs without a camera
Cyanotypes, or sun prints, are one of the oldest forms of photography — but you don't need a camera to make one.
​
Their deep blue tones come from a chemical reaction when light-sensitive iron salts are exposed to the sun. Any object that casts a shadow will leave an impression.
​
It's part science, part serendipity — a unique collaboration between the sun, the elements and the natural world.

Inspired by nature,
from my garden to your home
Nature inspires all my work. Every print begins with a walk in the garden or the woods near my home. I gather leaves, flowers, plants — anything with an interesting silhouette or delicate structure. And I'm often struck by how the most memorable prints come from humble grasses and weeds that are easily overlooked.
Whether I'm printing on paper, textiles or upcycled clothing, my intention is to open up news ways of appreciating nature. Each piece carries a bit of wonder. The more I look, the more I see. This is a gift; one I hope I'm passing along with each print — from my garden to your home.
Thank you for being here.
