We are all unique threads woven together to create a wonderful Tapestry of Life.

I am here to help you untangle the knots of your threads of life.

I’m Katarin,

I have over 15 years of experience in teaching photography at Penn State, East Stroudsburg University and at Metropolitan Community College in Omaha, Nebraska.

It’s become very clear throughout my teaching and photography career that we all have a story, unique talents and gifts that are truly needed in this world. To become aware of this, we must first look within to fully understand our unique thread. I love advising students and have the ability to help students to realize and define their dreams. Some of my students have gone to graduate schools like The Chicago Art Institute, Yale and San Francisco Art Institute. Others have gone to Brooks and RIT. Some are now professors, some have published books, others have found internships working for Interview and Vogue Magazine, and others found jobs working for ESPN and the fashion Industry in New York City.

My sincere caring and intuitive nature as well as my role as a teacher and mentor has had a direct impact in assisting people to secure exhibitions, scholarships and professional internships. It is through Tapestry of Life, that I have been able to extend my gifts to helping others through photography whether it be gaining a deeper insight into who you are or guiding you through a transition, I am here to listen, ask the right questions and really see internally through your photographs. I am the intuitive interpreter.

Without your unique thread, the tapestry would not be the same. The colors, patterns and weavings would be different.

An Omaha Tribal Elder, Howard Wolff, once told me

“First Heal the Individual

Then the Family

Then the Tribe

And then the Nation”

I am adding:

Then the World

And then the Universe

Do you feel like you’re tied up in knots… Confused and unsure where you’re headed?

This is exactly what we address when you work with me during my 1:1 sessions. My program starts out with a single session called Insight. It’s the starting point to fully understanding your unique thread.

Once you’ve gained a new perspective and the insight into who you are through an intentional conversation, you can continue your journey through my custom programs designed to help you thrive no matter what transition your unique thread is in.

After you’ve had your initial Insight session, my custom programs are designed to help you elevate your energy and creativity in our world.

Internal Work Sessions

I offer 3 different series of programs designed to help you create exceptional photography through your journey of going within.
InnerVision
Explore journaling and photographic visual story telling projects created to help you become aware of the small still voice of your inner child inside.
Envision
Branch out into photographic visual storytelling to really focus on the world around you. Explore the concept of place and space with your newly enlightened vision.
Intuition
Hone in on your awareness of your 5 senses and live daily using your fresh new set of eyes as well as your awareness of your 5 senses. As your senses are heightened, you will become more aware of the subtle details of the people and places around you.
External Work Sessions

I offer 2 different series of programs designed to assist you in becoming aware of the outer world and your unique thread within it.
Transitions
This is created to help you see broadly beyond your current external circumstances… This series is aimed to help you figure out what your gifts are, what the next step is and how to get where you need to go to follow your dreams.
Transformations
In this advanced level series, a portfolio review is required before we work at this level together. Designed for those in the photography field, but wanting to fine tune their work to get to the next step like an exhibition venue, new job, getting your portfolio ready for graduate school, or editing your work for a book publication.
