The Story Behind Pink Flower: Marion Business Spotlight

Pink Flower Photography offers modern newborn, kids and senior portraiture.

You may have heard of Pink Flower Photography, but perhaps you haven't heard how the studio got its name.

Caitlyn Hofmaster, who is the owner and lead photographer, wanted a name for her new business that would stick. People might not remember or be able to spell her given name, but her nickname - that is pretty memorable.

"While I was in Africa, which started my photography interest, one of my good Mozambican friends and translator at the time, nicknamed me Pink Flower," Hofmaster said. "Whenever we would go somewhere in the country to work with the people he would ask 'Where is my Pink Flower?'
