Featured bio: Tiffany Kirchner Dixon “The Fancy Farm Girl”

I first met Tiffany when we went to Oklahoma shoot the cover of Where Women Cook. Tiffany is a photographer that has worked multiple times with Where Women Create and Where Women Cook and will be featured in an upcoming issue (You will die of amazed when you see this woman’s chicken coop in the magazine, people. DIE, I tell you!) (But not ‘die’ in that really horrible way that ‘die’ often means.)(You know, because I added that whole “amazed” part in there.) (Which you will be.) (So, make sure you buy the issue!) She’s gorgeous and can totally pull off wearing a ruffled summer dress, bloomers and cowboy boots and man, she can shoot a pretty picture.

Hi! My name is Tiffany Kirchner Dixon, but some may know me as The Fancy Farmgirl.
I am a professional photographer and artist who lives and creates on a small slice of heaven farm in the Pacific Northwest.

(My father’s vintage 1940’s truck makes a great photography prop my clients love!)

My business name “The Fancy Farmgirl” truly reflects my lifestyle. Don’t be surprised if you see me at the Post Office in a vintage gown and cowgirl boots, with a car full of chickens! I love to decorate my home and farm. Just because you have animals and a garden doesn’t mean you can’t live a fancy lifestyle. I have a chandelier hung in my chicken coop, and I often glitter the hooves of my donkeys. And you can wash ruffles on your work pants as easily as any other material, so why not dress up to work on the farm?
I am a hard worker who isn’t afraid to break a nail (even if it is painted pink!) and I enjoy all the rewards that work brings.

On most days you’ll find me behind the camera shooting for magazines and books or doing portrait photography. I am so glad to have a career that is my passion, photography has given me that. I work frequently for both Where Women Cook and Where Women Create Magazine. I am constantly inspired by the amazing women that seem to surround the magazine, both those featured and those producing the magazine are in a calibur of their own, and I feel honored to be a part of it.

On every other day you’ll find me collecting eggs from the chicken coop or horsing around with my kids and beloved mini burros. Life on the farm with my husband, children and animals is where my heart is. This is also why I love to cook. Living on the farm gives me a bounty that can only be justified by a love for cooking and providing my family and friends with tasty meals and gifts from the farm.

(Bounty like this is hard to share……)

I love to travel and live my alter ego as a fancy city girl when doing so. Over the years I have lived on three different continents and traveled to over 26 different countries, all of which has given me a whole new perspective on the World, and makes coming home to life on the farm a treat.

In my free time I enjoy connecting with people through my blog, and I have even met with readers and friends as far away as Australia. It is amazing how the internet has brought a once very large World down to a manageable size.
