I live in Tampa, Florida, where the sun is “supposed” to shine all the time (except when it rains “most” of the time in the summer months). The extreme diversity of my employment history may also be of interest to some of you, which has included being a legal secretary, a PADI scuba instructor, an over-the-road truck driver (team driver with my husband), a boxing inspector, a private investigator, and a security officer.

That being said, I have always loved being behind the camera. About 15 years ago, I started photographing the many veterans’ events in which my husband was involved. At that time, I was using a Nikon N6006. It didn’t take long to become known as the unofficial “official” photographer. In 2005, I made the move to digital with my Nikon D70 camera, which I still use. The world is my classroom, and with technology changing things on an almost-daily basis, I strive to continue to “learn and improve.”

The most important thing to know is that Living Life Photography is not about me. I am in hopes that God will use me to bring a smile to a face or a tear to an eye. Maybe one of my photographs will take someone back to a special time that they thought they had forgotten, or give them a new memory to keep. I consider it a blessing to be able to photograph life as I see it, and thank God for the privilege of playing a small part in capturing memorable moments to be cherished for years to come.

In my world, everything I see is a photograph. Here’s to opening our eyes and hearts to “live life”. Thank you for letting me share “Living Life” through “Photography”.

If you use one of my images, please email me. I would be interested to know how my work is being used.
