Hey, I’m LindaMae, founder of Designs by LindaMae and the Trillium Art Shop!

I am thrilled to launch ‘Designs by LindaMae’- a unique blend of my artistic vision and business expertise. This fulfilling project is something I have been dreaming of for years and it is now a reality! I am professionally trained as a landscape designer, but through Trillium Art, I explore the beauty of nature through my camera lens. Trillium Art was born out of my love for the outdoors. There’s something special about nature and all of her creatures – the beauty and serenity that changes each season yet remains timeless.  Through my photography, I strive to capture the unique light, colour and movement that each season brings – an ever-evolving landscape of life.

On the other side, I’m also very passionate about using the power of the web to help small businesses succeed. I love creating custom systems and processes that help make everyone’s daily operations more organized, smoother, and more efficient. Having your business operations all in one place gives you peace of mind, allowing you to enjoy your studio time without worrying about content. Crafting a specific content strategy is essential for increasing your brand recognition in our digital environment.  Now is the perfect time to show off your passion and let your unique talents shine!
