Robyn Nola knows that nature saved her life. Four years ago, Nola faced a diagnosis with a life-threatening kidney disease. The years of working in the physically demanding field of massage therapy was exacerbating a lurking kidney disorder. The long hours she spent on her feet were taking a toll.

In her struggle to get well, she rekindled her passion for photography. She began photographing flowers in her backyard just for fun and relaxation. Nola also photographed flowers during her vacations with her husband. While on a trip in San Diego that relaxing hobby suddenly turned magical. Nola's unaltered image a lotus flower, stunned her husband.

"Something was special about this photo, it had a magical quality. It was quite remarkable," said Steve Kricun, Nola's husband.

Since that summer day, Nola has captured many more "magical" images.

Now she shares her appreciation and love for nature with the world through her website. At www.robynnola.com visitors can purchase Robyn's magical images in a variety of creative and inspiring products. Her best selling creation is called Blooming Affirmations. This is a set of affirmation cards that Robyn wrote, paired with her photographs of flowers, butterflies and dragonflies.

Nola only photographs in natural light. She has the knack for finding the right combination of composition and lighting making her art unique and distinct. Her eye for detail has led many to compare her to a modern day Georgia O'Keefe.

While pursuing her passion for nature photography another bit of magic was taking place.

On a routine visit with her nephrologist, Nola received amazing news. Her doctor informed her that she had "100% normal" kidney function and the only reason she needed to come back would be just to say hi.

There is no doubt in Nola's mind what led her back to health. She knows it was focusing on all of the beauty in mother nature. It is simply the law of attraction.

Being grateful for this gift is Robyn's most important lesson in life.
