Janna Culbreth
Janna of jaC Jewelry loves all sorts of jewelry and has a hard time fitting everything she owns into jewelry boxes. Her personal wardrobe concept is to own a few high-quality basics and dress them up with shoes, purses and jewelry. A few years ago, after being unable to find exactly what she wanted at department stores, she turned to designing her own jewelry. Each piece she made was a reflection of her mood, personality and style. Now she sells her jewelry both online and offline. How is her jewelry different? She does not seek to appeal to the masses. She creates one-of-a-kind designs that appeal to just one person – you. Everyone has a unique style, and Janna's goal is to help you express yours with her jewelry.

Dmitry Guimon
I started taking pictures with a small 16 mm spy camera when I was a kid. I enjoy experimenting with different cameras (such as pinhole cameras and old cameras) and getting involved in the process, like processing my film manually. However, I believe that the type of camera used and the developing process takes second place to the subject matter of the photograph. Photography, in my opinion, should either evoke some sort of emotional response or contain an element of humor. Some of my photographs are taken while traveling, but some of the most interesting photographs can be taken on your desk or in your neighborhood. In my work, I try to find hidden meanings in normal, everyday things or give roles to inanimate objects.

Katrina Wong, SpicyKate
SpicyKate
Are you sick and tired of all the skin care products that promise the
world but keep hurting your skin? Have you noticed how dry and
damaged your skin can be after washing your face? If you are ready
for a change, give SpicyKate a try. My soaps are mild with a very
light scent and don’t strip the oil from the skin.
I have been making my own skin care products for myself since I was a
teenager, but recently decided to start my own skin care business so
others could share the rewarding experience of natural homemade skin
care products. I use natural, simple ingredients that can be found in
the kitchen, thus making my products safe and nourishing.

Ann Wilkinson*
 | Ann Wilkinson found photography when she bought a 35mm camera with her high-school graduation present money. After taking an 18-year hiatus to own and direct an interntional transportation company, she found herself creatively and emotionally stifled. After she sold the company, all she needed to do was to take a photo of a buddha in Thailand and to spend two months in Panama to get herself going again with her eye behind the lens. Her journey has taken her to selling her photographs, both on the internet and in retail locations in Park City, Utah. Ann enjoys finding beauty and rhythm in the everyday, the overlooked and what might be someone else's second glance. Being able to share it with the world is not the gift she gives, it's the gift she has been given, and she feels fortunate to be abe to give back to the world. http://www.annwilkinsonphotography.com |
