"Study nature, love nature, stay close to nature. It will never fail you." -Frank Lloyd Wright.
In 1989 Judy graduated from Kutztown University and started working in photography for Hess’s department store. She photographed everything from china to jewelry to bed linens. Judy’s interest in pet, equine, and zoo photography came about with her interest in PPA print competition. This led to an interest in fundraising and donating to zoo’s finished work for Gala silent auctions. She is on the board of The Lehigh Valley Zoo Gala Committee. The importance of animal conservation is a passion of hers. This past year she worked on a calendar project for the LVZ that lead to over $4000 in donation money for the zoo. Her studio specializes in pet and equine photography. On location or in the studio. Offering digital mixed media paintings and fairytale composites of both pets and people. Horses have become a recent passion over the past 3 years. Judy started horseback riding again as an adult in the summer of 2020. Photographing these gentle giants alone or with their owners is a rewarding experience. On the teaching side, her seminars have gained a lot of national attention. Traveling to PPA affiliates and Photography Guilds across the country. Even small events have had attendees fly in from far away. In her free time she travels to Marth'as Vineyard and creati memorable seascapes and coastal art.
