Kristyn Brown

Kristyn was born and raised in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. She spent most of her childhood and adolescence shooting just for fun. By age 22, she was shooting professionally in Los Angeles, California. After 6 years on the west coast, Kristyn and her family moved back to Philly, where she started The Saints Project-A Modern Portrayal of Catholic Saints. In 2015 she was contacted by The World Meeting of Families to create custom 8ft banners for the youth congress portion of the event. Since then, she has created over 100 images of Saints and the Holy Family. She has been commissioned by several organizations, small businesses and non profits to create images for their companies.
