Hi!!!! (March 24, 2006). i need to update this page as it was written a couple years ago! Keep that in mind when reading. I'll get a new one up soon...

Indyart was started about 4 years ago as a place to sell my art. I had been doing portraits, nude studies, and other freelance work. I have always been interested in photography and took several years of it in high school and college. I also studied drawing, illustration, graphic design and art history (one of my other loves).

When the Thrashers came to Atlanta, my husband, Michael, and I started attending games and practices. (Our first date was an Atlanta Knights game). I began photographing Thrashers practices for fun and to draw portraits from. Michael has always been very supportive of me and we invested in a better camera so I could begin photographing the games at a closer level. We started displaying the photos for fans about two years ago just for fun. The repsonse has been great and towards the end of the 2002-2003 season, I decided I would try to make a go of a career in hockey. I can't think of a better job for me!

Through the love of hockey and a LOT of work (and a mistake here and there), we are now both photographing games, working on the sites and I am doing more art work. We are licensed through the ECHL and PHPA. This season we've had the chance to do some work for Be a Player trading cards and have been very fortunate to photograph some NHL games. We go to ECHL games 1-4 times a week and love it. (ECHL fans are some of the best, most passionate sports fans I've ever seen!). It looks like we will have the chance to photograph more NHL games, as well, this season.
