* Cristine Jones Photography * Spotlight

Christine Jones Photography is a collection of pictures she has taken herself as a discovering photographer and I think that she is starting off with the bar extremely high! She is a mother of three energetic boys and the energy she has herself translates into her photos. They are vibrant and poetic art that I would love to have displayed in my home. She sells them in a variety of forms: fine art prints, photo cards, glass pendants and bookmarks. You can also find more of her work on Flickr and if you see something you like she is always open to custom requests.

I have Displayed a few of selections of Christine's photography and I think they speak for themselves. I am in awe of the Jaw dropping beauty found within her photos.

Fine Art Print
Pink Magnolia

The levels of viewing this flower is absolutely gorgeous. I love that it is so vivid and three dimensional. Pink is a hot color in home fashion right now and I love the fact that this is not going to be found in your neighbors home. Any of her fine art prints would look lovely matted and framed.





I have my eye on these three photos, they are sold separately but I think my brother in law would love this combination. They are raw and striped down but so beautiful that way and represent to me a feeling of homecoming, a place we always know and recognize where we came from.
I love them and secretly hope to pull my brother in law's name for Christmas this year! Christine has a brilliant talent and she can even make a gas pump look gorgeous!

She has an eye for rustic beauty and for me I find that very alluring. All of her photos capture something special in them that you can see and communicate with. I think her works stands out but the best thing of all is that it is affordable. Like all the people I support it is done from someone small with a big passion and means something to them to be able to create it and have it admired.

  14. Hello!
    I liked the photo necklaces very much, and think that would be a great thing to expand.
    One thing that I think would be great to do in the shop, is to divide your categories not into the size of the photos, but their motifs. I am not inspired to click on numbers, but "Flowers" "country side" etc (or perhaps a beautiful name on a collection of photographs) inspires me to click away and find new photos that aren't on the first page. What size I choose would come second, when I've found a photo that I just must have. :)
    I'm also a new follower of this blog. If you're interested in bags and covers and creativity, I write a blog you might like: http://nindaeng.blogspot.com

    Cheers
