Through our ongoing Makers Series—beautifully written by the amazing Kirsten Kohlwey—we’ve highlighted local artists who bring heart and craftsmanship to everything they create. It’s been such a joy to help photograph and tell their stories.

A few recent favorites from the Makers Series include:

• Amy Englebrecht, a wildlife painter known for her vibrant, soulful animal portraits
• Daniel Olsen, a skilled bladesmith who handcrafts stunning blades with precision and care
• Frank Hucek, a master woodworker and furniture maker creating timeless heirloom pieces
• Jim Sheeran, a creative builder in Heber who designs custom birdhouses with personality and charm

These artists embody the creativity that makes Park City such a special place to live and work. As someone deeply passionate about creative portraits and visual storytelling, I’m honored to help shine a light on the makers who keep our community thriving.
