I am a wife, mother of 5 and grandmother to the little angel
in most of my sample pictures. I have lived in the Seattle area all my life.
I was a Boeing employee who was laid off in 1999. This provided
me time to play with my computer and photo editing software.
I also spent more time playing with my granddaughter and
taking lots of pictures of her. I was eventually called back
to work at Boeing, but it was short lived as I was laid off
less than a year later due to the economic effects of 9/11.
I have spent the better part of my time mastering my skills
as a computer graphics artist and photo editor in color and
black and white. I have dabbled in art since childhood and
my creative abilities have shined in this new found craft.
I take great pride in my work and bring smiles to people's faces.
Because I have gotten so many requests and compliments,
I have decided to turn it into a licensed business to share with everyone.
Although I do many types of enhancing and editing,
I named my business, "Perfect Angels", because in one of my
background created angel pictures, even the spunkiest of
children can become perfect angels, (as is the case with my granddaughter). T
he angel pictures are something you can look at to fill your heart,
and to remind us that the love and innocence of our past and present children is very special.
For several years, I have been a finalist and winner of the
Annual International Photography Contest held in Puyallup, WA.
