CarlyMarie is Christian Dudley’s mother.

As time passed and Carly mourned her son, she was given a dream.  In her dream, she saw Christian on the beach.

She knew, that she was being drawn to the beach.  She went, and she etched his name in the sand – and snapped a photo.

That day, it became Christian’s beach.

And every year, CarlyMarie captures nearly 10,000 photos at his beach.

Photos, that bring joy and comfort and healing to mothers, all over the world.

Carly has used her creative and healing gift in photos, prints, calendars, her Lost for Words card line, and beautiful Recognition of Life prints.

I own several of CarlyMarie’s art pieces.
