Photography chose me many years ago, but I walked away from the creative side of myself and went about a different path.  Then, when my children came along I decided to spend my time being a "stay at home mommy".  I loved being a mommy first, but it meant there wasn't extra money for cameras & lenses.  

Part of me was always looking for "what I really wanted to be when I grew up"...it took until I was ALL grown up, but in 2008 when my youngest went off to college I decided I didn't have any excuses any longer, I needed to see if I could do it.  Could I be creative enough?

And I will not lie - this has been a really hard personal journey.  I'm an introvert, and terribly unskilled in most social graces.  So taking on a business that involves me having to preach about myself in a positive way, and be interactive with clients, well...you can imagine where this is going, right?

But surprise!  I actually LOVE working with my clients.  I find being honest with them and even being a little vulnerable is a good thing.  So I've learned to do so many things because of this business, and much of it didn't involve the actual taking of the photos....
