About Holly

Hi! I’m Holly. I have been in the art field for nearly 15 years in some form or another. It’s my passion and I can’t imagine not utilizing my creative outlets through painting, drawing, designing and photography.

I studied a little bit of photography while attending Georgia Southern University. I was a printing management major, and was educated in the old school way of photography – FILM! Here I was also a staff photographer for the student newspaper and magazine. When I moved to St. Louis, I was lucky to use my artistic talents while working for makeup companies: Estee Lauder and Clinique. I took a break as I went on to study graphic design, pursuing careers in page layout with companies like Dale Carnegie Training and the National Association of Electrical Distributors.

I started my company in 2005 and began pursuing my dreams. I now photograph only high school seniors, and run a website for senior portrait photographers called, Inside the Locker. I design all the products I sell through my company and offer them to other photographers through a store called Two Pear Designs. I’m a pretty busy person, but it’s how I do things in life. I love being busy and I love helping others.

I live in St. Louis county, not far from my studio location, with my three dogs: Jack, Daisy and Lola. I am an avid supporter of animal rescue and adoption of rescued pets.

I love:
