Words have meaning but names have distinction.

HOME is one of my favorite pieces. Letter 'H' was found around a century-old barn in Round Top, Texas. I am baffled as to what it really is but knew it would add character and life to any word it was used in. Letter 'O' is the center of a very large, metal flower I discovered on someone's yard in Gruene, Texas. Letter 'M' is the back of an old, antique chair that sits outside a quaint, coffee shop in Port Hope, a little town on the outskirts of eastern Lake Ontario, Canada. And my favorite letter 'E', is part of the design of a solar lamp that sits in the middle of the front yard of my sister's cottage on Crowe River, northern Ontario. If you look closely, you will see a tiny spider making a web. This added detail provides great life to any alphabet photography picture!
Spelling out the word "MOTHER", or "MOM", using alphabet photography, is the perfect gift for the parent who has everything. There are many letter examples to choose from, and by using letters that might have some significant meaning, you will be giving a very unique gift of framed artwork. And, don't forget about "DAD"! With different letter selections from items such as fish hooks, tools, car parts, sports and machinery, you will definitely find letters of the alphabet to make dad happy too.
A perfect word for a Texan. A perfect word for A & M! Of course, "HOWDY" contains letters found in Texas. In the beautiful Texas Hill Country I was luck to find the letter "H" admist a beautiful field of bluebonnets that were in full bloom. The letter "W" is from an old pair of cowboy boots I found in an antique store in Georgetown, Texas.
One of the most popular pictures for those who call Texas home, I tried to incorporate letters that feel like Texas; lavender, cow hide, horseshoes, rusty metal. This is the frame most customers choose because it resembles wood from an old fence or barn.
"Unconditional Love" is a reminder to dog lovers of just how special our four-legged friends are. The letters are taken from my dog, Shelby, who showed a lot of patience as I photographed her in many different positions trying to get just the right letters. For those who want a photo shoot done of their own dogs, please let me know. It's a lasting tribute to our special pets.
"Laugh, Everyday", is one of my fun pictures. I created this picture with my father in mind. He always said "Never end the day without a good laugh. And better if you can make someone else laugh with you".
"The Lord has done great things for us and we are filled with JOY." While visiting a butterfly sanctuary at the Wild Seed Farms in Fredericksburg, Texas I marvelled at the beauty of so many butterflies together in one place. Then, to my excitement, I realized that every butterfly wing had a letter on it! I quickly got my camera ready for action. As I began capturing letters of the alphabet from the wings of these butterflies, they rested quietly on my back, head and camera. I think they loved being a part of the alphabet photography experience!
A sweet way to "Welcome" guests with this unique alphabet photograhy picture. Notice the "c" sitting in a bed of snow, which was a piece of metal I found embedded in ice and snow on my daughter's farm in Appsley, Ontario.
What woman doesn't love shoes. This fun picture was inspired by my daughters who can sniff out a shoe sale a mile away. When packing for a trip, they might acutally have more shoes than clothes. I added a digital matt to the picture to enhance the 'shoe' theme. I fun picture for any room, especially a girl's bedroom.
"FOOTBALL" is a poster I created for coaches and football players and is a very interesting conversation piece. Through alphabet photography, any sport can be 'posterized'. Send me the letters and I will do the rest!
For "Music" we chose letters that have some resemblance to musical instruments. With the classical music sheet underlay this picture is very unique.
