I’m Mary Anderson and have worked as an art director/stylist in commercial, residential and studio photography for 5 years.  I’ve coordinated and organized photo shoots for over 9 years.  I’ve worked with many photography teams across the US, and have traveled from Maui to Maine to Key West creating beautiful photographs. 

My educational background is in art. I was a Fine Arts major at San Jose State University.  Prior to that, I studied for two years under Bill Paskewitz, artist and Director of Arts at Las Positas College in Livermore, CA.   I use classic art perspectives in every shoot, in every photo set-up.   This perspective includes line, contrast, color and light to ensure the client’s objective is the hero of each shot, whether it’s a product or a room’s ambience.      

I’d be delighted to discuss how I can help you in your photography needs, either through art direction and styling, or by coordination of the entire shoot process.
