Seashells and places you’ll find them.
While living in Florida my family collected loads of seashells over the years. I took them for granted and never thought too much about the creatures who made them or their lives under the sea, until recently. Now that I use them as part of my work, I have a renewed interest in them. Beyond collecting and photographing seashells, I like to write about tropical locations where you may stumble across that perfect shell.Find a Shell
