The very first time I picked up a camera and looked through it, it changed the way I viewed the world . It is now nearly an obsession to look at people and the world in an entirely different way, different angles, different moods.

I try to capture peoples mood and personality in the body language, in the eyes. The things that make us all so very individual.

I took an interest in photography 10 years ago in Detroit, when I bought my first camera. It was a Kodak something or another automatic with a standard attached lense, which took care of the everything: all I had to do was take the picture, or point and shoot. The results seemed to be average and I wanted to know why. I read l hundreds of books and websites on the subject. My interest never died, but my career went in a different direction.
5 years later I again came to realize my passion for photography, It was then that I realized my photographs were not average but individual and unique, and truley mine. I then took my photography much more seriously. I started as a portrait photographer specializing in children's portraits. I then discovered wedding photography. I worked as an assistant wedding photographer in central Florida until I moved to Ocala where I decided to go on my own taking beautiful portraits and providing wedding photography.Today, it's all about having fun. I am not afraid to admit that I love my work. I will never look back and I will always have the enthusiasm, the excitement, to capture the moment that is before me.

I have heard it said " Your success will ultimately depend on the relationships you build with people." I take great pride in my work, and I am building my success one relationship at a time. I look forward to working with you!
