Island of Misfit Crafters is a photographer/designer duo based in Hartford, CT. Breck has over 25 years of photography experience in a broad range of specialties. His images encompass everything from landscapes and nature to fitness, architecture, and portraiture. Whether beautiful or bizarre, Breck enjoys capturing the perfect image and is thrilled to offer some of his favorites as prints, canvases, or framed. You can also check out more of his personal photography on Instagram.

Caresse is the designer half of the duo. As an independent graphic designer (cladesign.com), she took her keen eye for visual communication and created the first jewelry holder to organize her own growing pile of necklaces. The "oohs"and "ahhs" she received from friends and family prompted her to continue creating. Her latest creations combine found objects with wood. Every aspect of the process is an adventure, whether it's scouring salvage shops for materials or drilling the final holes, and every piece of art is 100% handmade from recycled materials.

In addition to their artistic ventures, Breck and Caresse pursue simple endeavors, such as triathlons, endurance running, and wrangling their many cats (impossible, but fun to try!).
