Welcome to Shoreline Framing

At Shoreline Framing in Westbrook, Connecticut, we believe every piece deserves to be treated with care, intention and respect. We believe in quality over quantity  – and in framing that is designed to preserve and elevate the artwork, not simply to meet the lowest price point. Most custom framing projects start with a minimum investment of $300, with pricing based on size, materials and design.

With experience and thoughtful, detail-driven approach, we specialize in custom picture framing that protects, preserves, and beautifully presents everything from fine art to personal mementos. 

Whether you’re an artist, collector, or simply someone who values meaningful design, we’re here to help you frame what matters most.

MY STORY

Artist, Photographer & Framer…..Owner

My creative life began in the quiet countryside, shaped by animals, nature, and a deep love of art. I studied at the University of Wisconsin–Madison and Lyme Academy of Fine Arts, where I learned not only how to create work, but how thoughtful presentation elevates meaning. In art school, I often built my own frames, developing an early appreciation for craftsmanship, detail, proportion, and design.

Today, through both Shoreline Framing and Fauna Joy Photography, I continue to explore the joy of creating art and the equally meaningful work of presenting it well. I love helping artwork, photographs, and personal pieces feel complete — not overdone, but beautifully supported.

At Shoreline Framing, I specialize in custom framing that enhances the piece rather than overpowers it, with careful attention to balance, materials, and story.

I believe deeply in quality over quantity. Every project is approached with care, creativity, and respect. I look forward to working with you.

Frame Local.

Our retail space is more than a frame shop — it’s a curated boutique featuring:

  • Handmade soaps and candles.
  • Nautical coastal keepsakes and decor.
  • Westbrook merchandise.
  • Small gifts and jewelry.
  • Art kits, education and supplies.

At this time we are reducing inventory from our retail space. This will make room for education and a la carte framing supplies.
