Meet Etsy Photographer & Artist: MaggieDeePhoto

Maggie Dee was born in Scotland, but later immigrated to Canada where she currently resides. Photography started out as a mere hobby for this phenomenal talent. "I used to shoot models for fun (I have an extensive background in fashion)," she explains. "After a couple of years, I realized it was more of a passion than a hobby and I took the plunge and went pro." She's compelled to shoot personal creative projects, expressing her ethereal style - and one titled "A Millennium Prophecy, a return to the Source" was recently exhibited. "It was a project of words and images, projecting there is no religion without science and vice versa, with lots of anti racism thrown in." It received many accolades and some of the pieces are available in her Etsy shop (i.e. the shot of the Angels and Spacemen). "I believe it is important for a photographer to select their own personal projects, something other than their everyday professional work," she says. Her inspiration for her spiritual art comes from within, "from the source." Please check out her shop and website: http://maggiedeephoto.etsy.com/ www.maggiedeephotographer.com
