Q. What's the hardest thing about being a small business owner in Northeast Cobb?

A. The down economy. Everyone has a camera these days and end up getting family members to take their pictures instead of hiring a professional. However, they don't realize what they are giving up. Heirloom portraits are classy and bring warmth to your heart for a lifetime.

Q. What is the best thing about Northeast Cobb?

A. The friendly and thoughtful people.

Q. Why did you choose to open your business in Northeast Cobb?

A. Being from Florida, I didn't know much about the area, but ended up falling in love withΒ  home on a small lake and ended up choosing Northeast Cobb. Having a lake as a back drop served as the perfect location for taking pictures. After relocating here, I learned Cobb County offers the best services for hearing impaired children. As my son and daughter are both hearing impaired, I was beyond thrilled to be living in a place with so much support through the county and school system.

Q. Why did you pick this particular kind of business?

A. I am an artist at heart and love helping others. Being a photographic artist lets me help other through art. It is incredibly fulfilling and rewarding.

Q. What are some of the services you offer that people don't know about?

A. I offer a special line of artwork with botanicals and butterflies, as well as giraffes and zebras from two safari trips to South Africa. I can come into your house or office and coordinate frames and matting to match perfectly.Β
