For Genevieve Ginty, the complex simplicity of colour and light has always captured her, takes her breath away, and propels her to create.
Combining her love, study, and practice of art, photography, and design with twenty years of media production, management, and educating, for Genevieve, this is the perfect marriage of form and function. Clear communication and individual expression to create beautiful photographs or designs and/or a well-designed space in a website.

She started working with Photoshop in the 1990s and self-taught her way through the Adobe suite ever since.
