Thank you for coming to my website. Currently, my work is focused on two projects: my book Women in Shadow and Light --winner of the Independent Publisher's (IPPY) Book of the Year (Women's Issues)--and the photographic exhibit from which it evolved, Out of the Shadows. Both feature forty women who found the courage to triumph over abuse. Photographs combine with text to portray the essence of each woman’s journey to healing. The projects use art to empower women by focusing on hope, strength and healing—not violence and victimization.

I also do custom portraits and freelance assignments. I value the opportunity to help you find creative solutions for your personal or professional photographic needs. I have experience producing artwork for everything from CD covers to annual reports to family portraits. I usually work in black and white, but would enjoy bringing some color to your life as well. Please contact me for your next project.

Look for Jan later this year on the PBS program "To the Contrary"!
