Hi! I'm Tina, and this is my husband Brandon...

If there's something you should know about me, it's that I've always had the urge to be creative! I remember as a young girl, altering clothes I found at a thrift shop, trimming the legs of an old pair of jeans and converting them into overalls...I thought that was jean-ious! And that's when I knew I was meant to somehow, someway, work in the fashion. I became obsessed with fashion illustration and my sketch book allowed me to bring my ideas to life on paper. My passion eventually led me to the Fashion Institute of Technology in NYC, where I studied Fashion Design and majored in Fashion Illustration. Since then, it's been an exciting winding road. I've worked in the industry as a designer for over 2 decades, traveled to Paris, Korea, Thailand, China, India, and even took a stab at launching my own jewelry brand. During COVID, I started sketching again and realized my illustrations could have more meaning...that's when Keepsake Couture was born! I'm super passionate about using my love for illustration to create something beautiful and meaningful for you! Plus, I'm obsessed with all things sparkly, and gorgeous wedding gowns!
I'm blessed to have the most amazing husband, Brandon, who supports me in every way, and an uber talented teenage daughter, who keeps me on my toes!
I'd love to be a part of your story...whether I sketch the guests on your special wedding day, or we collaborate on commissioned artwork, I'm excited to work together to make your most cherished moments even more unforgettable!
Sincerely,
Tina
