Photographer/Designer ~ Barb from GingerLee Photography





Her Shop ~ GingerLee Fine Art Prints and Handcrafted Jewelry, Her Blog ~ GingerLee Studios

"I'm a wife and mother to two young girls living in the midwest who started out making jewelry. I ended up jumping into the world of photography with both feet after purchasing my first DSLR.

I've taken a liking to still life and food photography and enjoy using various textures on much of my work.


**My Jewelry**

All Lake Superior rocks have been found and collected by yours truly. They have been unpolished and left in their natural condition except for the small hole that has been drilled into each one. I always use small sized rocks for all of my earring designs considering that many people have a weight sensitivity. Please keep in mind that none of the rocks in any of my designs are identical in shape, size, or color.

I handcraft all of my pieces from sterling silver wire or sheet and only use sterling silver findings.

All items come from our smoke free, pet free home.

I hope there's something here in my little shop that catches your eye."

Here's an example of one of Barb's beautiful pieces of jewelry:

  4. I love the way you embrace your home in your work - the Lake Superior stones, the blueberries...your work really showcases the beauty of Minnesota.
    On top of that, the technical aspect is lovely, too! The clarity of the focus and the *perfect* white balance with your unique perspective and framing in - especially the last two - your photos creates really beautiful images.
