I am a wife to my wonderful husband and mother to four beautiful daughters and have been a professional photographer for 13 years and have loved every minute of it. Capturing those precious and memorable moments that will last forever makes it all worth it. I began taking pictures after my sister-in-law and I did our own mini "photo shoot" with our children in the backyard. We set up bales of hay, cornstalks, and used some saddles to make a very stylish background. Then with my point and shoot camera we started snapping pictures. I was able to capture some of the cutest pictures which soon became my inspiration to become a professional photographer. With that motivation, I gathered up as much information and photography materials as I could and studied my way into where I am at today. The learning never stops. There are always new techniques and tips emerging to help make photography unique and interesting.
