    About Penumbra Blue Studios Photography

    A Passion for Photography

    As a portrait photographer, I am passionate
    about creating enduring (and endearing)
    images of the beauty, the fun and the unconditional love of family pets.
    I've been making art all my life
    and have been creating 

     photographic images almost as long.


     I'm committed to providing you with
    the very best experience and
    the highest quality photography artwork. 

    Your Pet Images Are Important!

    Your pet is a member of your family --
    always there when you need a hug,
    loyal and endlessly patient,
    protecting the family and home
    with life and limb.  


    My kitten was five weeks old and
    the cutest fluff ball you ever saw!
    She fit into the palm of my hand.
    I called her Jumpy -- of course!

    Your pet is a member of your family --
    always there when you need a hug,
    loyal and endlessly patient,
    protecting the family and home
    with life and limb.  


    My kitten was five weeks old and
    the cutest fluff ball you ever saw!
    She fit into the palm of my hand.
    I called her Jumpy -- of course! 


    She was my tiniest family member.
    She knew when I needed to be
    comforted in difficult times.
    Sadly, the only photograph of her
    spunky kittenhood is the old crumpled one
    printed from the ad
    where I found her. 


    Now she's gone
    and I SO wish I had a
    huge canvas portrait of that
    tiny fur ball flying through the air
    toward me across the floor.
    It  would just make me smile
    every time I see it,
    and remember her loving cuteness. 

    Sure, I have a lot of portraits of her,
    but not as that teeny tiny
    tuxedo-suited little 2 month-old
    fuzzball.


    As a portrait photographer,
    I integrated her adult images
    right in there with my other beloved
    family members.
    And I smile from ear to ear 

    every time I see them! 


    She is alive and well
    in my heart and on my wall!

    Why Penumbra Blue?

    I don't have a middle name  (dad had too many!). 

    So back in high school my friends helped me choose one by pointing with closed eyes 

    on a random page in a giant dictionary.  
    And there it was: "penumbra" --
    the secondary shadow at the edge
    of the shadow (umbra) of the moon. 

    Or, as I prefer,
    the shadow of the shadow of the moon.

    And "Blue"?  It' brings a sense of calm and creativity. I especially love the 

    dark mysterious midnight blue,
    like the penumbra. 


    And your pet for sure
    has a mysterious side too,
    doesn't she?
