ABOUT ME

Hi, I’m Annemarie, and I work in my home studio and backyard garden in Tumbarumba, a charming little town by the Snowy Mountains of New South Wales. My professional occupations are photography and graphic design. While emerging in "slow food" storytelling with my blog, I started to work with ABC Organic Gardener Magazine as a contributor in 2022. The Snowy Foodie blog was created as a recovery project following the 2020 bushfire disaster and during the COVID-19 global pandemic. It was meant to bring positivity to social media feeds and was used as a tool to create content, develop my writing, and share my work as a food/gardening photographer. I am currently working on a niche cookbook inspired by Québec province (where I was born) and its unique cuisine. Please follow me on Instagram for news on my projects: @bottleandbrushstudio.

Back in the Montréal years, I experimented with multiple artistic disciplines. For nearly ten years, I was immersed full-time in a vibrant cultural scene, designing promotional material for major events like the world-renowned Montreal Jazz Festival. As a genuine music lover, being part of a festival team was memorable. After I moved to regional Australia in 2015 (for love!), the expat and country life taught me new skills and brought new interests. Home cooking and the whole process of growing and preserving while finding a passion for culinary photography were steadily revealed to me. Today, I feel more grounded playing with food from the garden, but music will always be on shuffle in the house!
