What do you do?
During the day, I teach art at New Trier high school in Winnetka, Illinois. We still have wet darkroom, which is really fabulous. I also teach drawing and painting, but my heart is photography. I love, love teaching what I adore to the future generations.
 On the weekends and evenings, I create fine art photography primarily with my plastic cameras and my twin lens reflex. My photography documents places I have travelled and the aesthetics of architectural facades or evolving landscapes. I am an exhibiting artist and iPrintfromHome always has my back when it comes to printing outside the darkroom. I also own my own photography business called,

I photograph weddings, portraits and events with my Nikon D700. I rely on iPrintfromHome for my printing because of their quality and efficiency.
How do you do it?
(re. teaching) I breathe. My husband reminds me to do so all the time; he teaches at New Trier too, so he knows the drill. I organize. I love color coded lists and calendars. Most weeks I'm working seven days a week so things can get a bit crazy. Two words: google calendar!
 My art making and business philosophy is simple. Document truthfully. Adapt to situations, don't force them to adapt to you. I shoot film as much as possible because I believe in traditions; I also embrace innovations and have enjoyed the marriage between film and digital. For post-process I want my b&w photography to look eloquent (even if the subject matter isn't), I keep my edits simplistic. I want my color photography to be bold so I tend to cross-process my film (accentuates the color). I always follow my intuitions and trust that all the years in art school and teaching art will lead me on the right path.
Why do you use iPrintfromHome.com?
I was first introduced to iPrintfromHome when I was in grad school. I needed digital slides for my day lab. I was making poloroid transfers and lifts and wanted to use some of my old negatives. I was blown away by the quality, price, and speed. I have been hooked ever since and spread the word about this amazing company whenever I get the chance. I have used iPrintfromHome for all of my printing. I trusted them to print my solo graduate exhibition, wedding photography, and portraits. I think I would cry buckets and buckets if they ever went away...so please don't!! I have tried other companies and they pale in comparison. Thank you for all of the years of amazing prints--you make my art sing!
