| I have always been very passionate about photography for as long as I can remember. My very first experience was with a Santa Claus camera that took only black and white pictures - I think I was eight or nine. From then on I was hooked. I always had a camera with me. Since then my vision has changed (and my camera ;-)) but the passion remains the same. I still get just as excited now as I did when I took my first picture. I have always loved beautiful scenery and have spent many hours looking through books and traveling just soaking it all in. I enjoy different styles of photography but my true love is nature photography. I love landscapes - streams, mountains, fields - It just seems to draw me in and I love waiting for that one perfect shot when the sun or the moon hits something just how you imagined - It is so exhilarating. I am mostly self taught but have studied under a few artists including Don McGowan and Adam Jones. |
