Our Mission

Little Fish Studios blends peaceful words and meditative images into paper products that offer refreshing originality and high quality at a competitive price.

We strive to make each interaction with our customers, vendors, employees and friends a  positive one; we realize they each contribute to the success of our company and play a role in the journey we have undertaken.

Our Partner

In 2008, Little Fish partnered with Collage Greetings, an innovative greeting card distribution company in Bend, Ore., with coverage throughout the United States.

Collage handles all of our U.S. wholesale sales and marketing, warehousing and product packaging, order fulfillment and distribution, and customer service. Please visit our Wholesale page for more information.

Our Founder and Creative Director

Little Fish Studios was founded by Mary Ann Rinkleff, a former journalist who spent more than a decade managing marketing and communications activities for nonprofit organizations.

Fresh from a six-month sabbatical she took to Nepal in 2001, Mary Ann sought to create a product that caused people to slow down and reflect. She launched Little Fish in 2002 and now serves as its Creative Director.

All of the photography we use on our cards are Mary Ann's images - we don't buy stock images or from freelance photographers. Mary Ann also selects each quote and writes the sentiments found on the inside of our greeting cards.
