Is My Coastal Fine Art Photography Right for Your Home?

Selecting art for your home is a deeply personal process. It’s a lot more than just filling a wall; it’s choosing what kind of feeling you want to come home to every day.

For me personally, that means a space that feels like a peaceful, soothing retreat, regardless of whether the art is going in a living room, bedroom, bathroom, entryway, or home office, and regardless of whether it's a beach house or a city loft. I think the quest for this feeling definitely translates to my photography. I’m always drawn to those calm and quietly joyful moments on the coast that make you take a deep breath, relax your shoulders, and take your mind off your to-do list for a little bit.

If you’re wondering whether my art might be a good fit for your space or your clients, here’s a short guide:

You might love my work if

You’re drawn to calm, coastal spaces

My photographs are centered around life on the coast - sparkling waves, quiet beaches, nostalgic palm trees, beautiful shore birds, calm water. If you gravitate toward interiors that feel airy, soothing, and uncluttered (think natural textures, light-filled rooms, breezy color palettes, spaces that feel like an exhale), you’ll likely feel at home with my prints.

You enjoy the feeling of slow living

My work is always created during unhurried moments. Early mornings, off-season wanderings, days when the beach is empty and the world feels calm. If you’re someone who appreciates the idea of slowing down, being present, and finding beauty in stillness, my photography might be a good fit.

You love the ocean — even from far away

You don’t have to live by the sea to feel connected to it. Many of my collectors are people who grew up near the water, spent summers on the coast, or simply find comfort in soft, coastal colors. My prints often become a window back to a favorite memory or place, and I love hearing that!

“I love Cattie’s work! The piece I chose with the sun reflecting on the waves makes me feel as if I’m there…happy times remembered.” - Cathi, FL

You’re an interior designer who needs refined, coastal artwork for clients

Interior designers often come to me for prints that feel elevated, timeless, and calm. My images work especially well in coastal homes, modern minimal spaces, and rooms where the goal is peaceful atmosphere rather than bold statement. And with both framed and unframed prints in a wide range of sizes, including large formats and oversized triptychs, it’s easy to find the perfect piece for both small spaces and large, open rooms with big walls.

You love interiors that lean toward minimal, modern, or Scandinavian design

Because my imagery tends to be soft, clean, and understated, it blends effortlessly into spaces with: 

• white or light-toned walls
• clean lines
• natural materials
• neutral colors
• subtle decor
• a calm, curated aesthetic

You appreciate abstract elements in nature

While my images are always original photographs, many have an abstract, almost painterly quality. Cloud formations, patterns in the sand, the way a small wave bends when meeting the shore - these details often become quiet abstractions. If you’re drawn to abstract art but want something still grounded in nature, my abstract art prints might resonate with you.

You want art that feels calm, peaceful, and timeless

I always hope that my work brings a sense of peace and a moment of calm in the middle of a busy day. If you’re looking for art that doesn’t shout for attention but gently shifts the whole feeling of a room, my prints might be a good fit.

"The piece arrived and it’s even more gorgeous in person! I love how peaceful it is. When I was a kid I took swimming lessons at my neighbor’s pool early in the morning when it was very quiet out still. This picture makes me think of those mornings. Thank you so much, we love it!" Hilary, CA

In the end, it’s all about emotion

Art is personal. The right piece should make you feel something - comfort, nostalgia, wonder, joy. If my work makes you pause and take a deeper breath, then it may be the perfect match.

Take a look around my collection of prints. I hope you find something that stirs emotion or reminds you of a place you love.
