About The Artist

Jayne Carney Photographer

Jayne Carney is an award winning photographer and digital artist currently based in North Carolina.

I started developing my skills as a photographer and digital artist in 2005. While starting out as a lifestyle family photographer, I discovered my love for nature and wildlife photography and transforming my photos into artwork using textures, filters and my Wacom board for digital painting.

​

I've lived in MA, FL and now NC, which has given me so many opportunities to enjoy the wildlife, birds and beautiful scenery whenever I find the time to get outside.
