I started shooting seriously over 30 years ago when I was planning a year long trip to New Zealand and Australia. In preparation for my trip, my dad gave me his older camera, and I started asking some of the photographers in our area for advice. They were generous with their time and knowledge, and taught me how to use my camera. That trip cemented my love of photography, and I have been learning ever since. I made the leap to start my own business in 2019.
