I took photography classes in
high school and became the photo editor for our school newspaper my
senior year. This was when photography really became a passion for me.
I loved working in the darkroom, waiting patiently to see the images I
had taken come to life. I loved being on the sideline during football
games, taking pictures of the players and the great feeling when I knew
I’d gotten the perfect shot. My parents gave me my first expensive
camera for graduation and I still consider it one of the greatest gifts
I’ve ever received.
Since then, I’ve always been
the one with the camera. I am embarrassed to say that I have boxes of
pictures that have never made it into albums. Pictures of weddings,
birthdays, holidays…oh, did I mention my children? They have both had a
camera in their face since birth.
Plain and simple, I love
taking pictures!
I love being a part of those
wonderful events in my clients’ lives. Whether it is a wedding with all
of your family and closest friends, a birthday party celebrating your
dad’s 70th birthday or a family session with your three kids
and crazy dog, I love capturing your special memories and then giving
them back to you to cherish for a lifetime.
I try to keep things fun and
lighthearted while making sure I tell your story with emotion, laughter
and love.
I’d love to meet you and talk
about your special occasion.
I
fell in love with photography on a trip to California when I was
twelve. I had my Kodak Pocket Instamatic camera with me and took photos
everywhere we went. My mother was appalled after she paid to develop
them and found I had taken three rolls alone during the Shamu Show at
Sea World. I was hooked!
