As a fine-art portrait photographer and jewelry and home accessory designer, Monica Rich Kosann has worked for many years with people to integrate their memories and most cherished possessions into their daily lives.

As a photographer, Kosann works with photography clients to integrate her candid images of children and family into the décor of their homes. She encourages clients to frame her photographs as they would any other piece of art, creating what she calls "the fine art of family for the home."

A number of years ago, Monica began scouring antique shows and flea markets for vintage lockets, cigarette cases, and powder compacts that could be adapted to hold family photographs. As demand increased, she developed her own unique collection of jewelry and home accessories. Today, Monica's brand-name jewelry, image cases and frames are sold in more than one hundred select stores across the country, including Bergdorf Goodman, Barney's, and Neiman Marcus. In 2008, Monica opened her own in-store boutique at Bergdorf Goodman in New York City.
Monica was named the recipient of the 2010 RISING STAR AWARD for FINE JEWELRY by the Fashion Group International in January 2010.
