About Me

I am a mom to two beautiful girls and a wife to a wonderful husband and we all live in Howell, MI. I am also a former school teacher. I taught for seven years and when my youngest daughter was born in April 2008, I decided to quit so I could stay home with my kids.

In the years that I was teaching, I always had a nagging voice in the very back of my mind asking, "What do you want to be when you grow up?" I have always loved photography, but it wasn't until I bought my first digital SLR camera (my trusty little Rebel XTi) that I really submerged myself into learning all I could about photography. I used and abused that camera and it trudged along with me as I learned and grew.

I have always loved art, but I felt crippled in that area because of my left-brained tendencies. Digital photography has beautifully blended my love of art with the science and technology that I am comfortable with. It has allowed me to express myself in a way that I have not able to with other mediums.
