Equal parts Cowgirl and Beach Bum

 

I’m Kristine Remlinger and I am the photographer and jewelry designer behind
Miscellanee. I often say I have horses in my soul and saltwater in my veins. I grew up at the Jersey Shore and have been an equestrian for over 25 years, so I love that my art lets me embrace both my passions.

For the past few years, jewelry making has been become my main focus. I use various techniques including knotting, braiding and macramé to attach freshwater pearls, natural stones, Roman glass, sea glass and recycled glass beads from Indonesia and Africa on to leather. I creates beachy, boho jewelry that can be worn from coffee to cocktails.  Among my designs are necklaces, bracelets, earrings and anklets as well as men's items. I also incorporate sterling silver with semiprecious stones in earring and necklaces designs.

When taking a picture, my goal is to zero in on that moment when you can feel the sun on your face, hear the ocean in your ears or feel the sand between your toes. To capture that moment you have seen a thousand times but never took the time to really enjoy and see in detail. I love when people comment that they are expecting the water to touch their feet as they gaze at one of my photos! I do not use any editing software on my photos. You are seeing what I saw when I took the photo. For me, this is the challenge—to be able to catch the moment as it happens! Each of my photos has a story and my customers are always surprised that I can remember where I took each one.
