About Me

I got into photography my junior year of high school.  Our school was lucky enough to have a black and white class offered to the students. In the class we learned about shutter speeds, f-stops, how to develop film and prints.  I quickly fell in love with the whole process, and it truly made me happy when one (or more) of my classmates chose one of my photos as their favorite during the class critique.  And then there was the esteemed privilege of having the teacher pick your pictures to be mounted and hung in the library entry way or the main office of the school campus.  Nothing is more gratifying to me than having people compliment one of my creations after hours of toiling away in the dark room perfecting highlights and shadows.

Now I’m in my third year of college studying for a degree in geography and also hoping to continue working on starting a portrait business after college.

A list of my cameras, in chronological order ;)
1. Nikon N44 (film)- This is the camera I used when I started doing photography in high school,
2. Canon EOS Rebel (film)- I used this one for my college B&W class
3. Canon AE1 (classic!)- also used for B&W class
4. Canon Powershot SD850 IS- point and shoot fun
5. Canon Rebel XS- woohoo! 10 megapixels! = happiness!
