Pearson will be discussing garden design, illustrated by showcase gardens in Europe and across the United States. She will analyze their design, the hardscape and softscape elements, that make a landscape shine. She will discuss how you can come up with a concept plan for your own yard and ways to modify and incorporate some of those grand themes seen in the showcase gardens into a scale suitable for your own backyard, your pocketbook and your schedule.

Prior to her career as a photographer, she was a registered landscape architect in the state of Massachusetts where she practiced for 12 years, including 4 years at the renowned multi-disciplinary firm, Sasaki, headquartered in Watertown, Ma.

Among them are Yankee, Vermont Life, Farm and Ranch Living, Country, Offshore, Insight Guides and Lonely Planet.
