About the author
Lindsi Jones has a deep admiration of and affection for cats. After graduating from Valdosta State University with a bachelor¿s degree in Fine Art Education, she began working as a wedding and portrait photographer. Hundreds of weddings and thousands of portraits later, she partnered with Miss Kitty Feline Sanctuary, in Thomasville, Georgia. Each time Lindsi photographs a wedding, she donates to the shelter on behalf of the couple. In 2015, she began a project titled 101 Cats in Bow Ties, which resulted in an installation-style art exhibition featuring portraits of high-fashion felines dressed in bow ties she handmade for the project. She¿s continued the project and works with shelters to create exceptional feline portraits used in social media and other advertisements that aide adoption efforts and celebrate cats worldwide. Lindsi¿s work with shelter animals has been featured on television and in online publications, newspapers, magazines, and advertisements.
