Me and Photography

How did I get into photography? It's actually a skill I had, but didn't realize it until I was in my 30's. I've been a shutterbug my whole life. My school friends remember me as the one with a camera in hand. And now they come to me for old photos. My husband gave me my first DSLR camera for Christmas in 2006. It was a Sony A100. From that moment I became even more of a Shutterbug and started taking the annual portraits of our daughter.

A friend approached me in late 2011 asking if I had ever thought about doing photography professionally. I had never really thought about it before. I loved photography, my Uncle used to be a professional photographer, and I had some cousins that were into photography. Several family members and friends would tell me I have the eye for it. So, I thought I'd give it a shot and started doing some portrait sessions with friends to get a feel for it. After falling in love with it, I started studying my camera settings and photography. I taught my self by experimenting with my camera and watching many, many videos on youtube. I updated my camera and started investing in lenses and equipment. If you're thinking about getting into photography, be prepared for the expense. It is a very expensive hobby / business. I've had to slowly invest in piece by piece at a time because of the expense.

Through the process I discovered my love of Fine Art photography. I love capturing natures beauty. Nature is always changing and there are so many beautiful aspects and places to this world that we live in. After having a good sized collection of photos, I decided what good was the collection if I didn't get it out there for other's to see and enjoy. I hope you enjoy them as much I enjoyed taking and processing them.
