BEHIND THE LENS

​

My interest in photography probably started because my dad was interested in photography.  I remember turning the knobs on his sturdy old Canon and opening the film door and looking inside wondering how it worked.  I bought my first ‘real’ camera, film of course, when I was 18 and ran home to shoot pictures and try out all the settings.  I took more photography in college and learned to develop my own film - which is amazingly fun.  Even though I shoot digital now, I think a lot about how fun it would be to have my own dark room.  I’d love to say that I know everything there is to know about photography, but I know I’m still a student.  Learning something new every day whether from reading photography blogs or talking to other photographers and learning their secrets, is just a part of the progression.  Photography styles change and though I think it’s fun to dabble in the photoshop trends, my ultimate goal is to be a photographer who is classic and timeless

My business is a dream I always had.  It's my creative and social outlet!  I love meeting new clients and finding common ground.  I definitely know how hard it can be to be in front of the camera!  Not easy!  I try to have so much fun on my sessions that people just forget about that part and have fun!
