It has been a pleasure to be included in her growth and shared camaraderie in our individual quests for the perfect pictures.

It is such an honor to write Mary's first testimonial. You can tell she has a great love for her subject matter and many of her works look like fine oil paintings that belong as centerpieces sitting on a mantle. She is a master of texture & her images of rural Iowa and barns are all works of Art.. There is so much depth to her work it is mind boggling. Mary is also a very loyal contact and great at providing feedback. She takes the time to leave meaningful comments and I really appreciate that.
