I am a stay at home mom to 2 beautiful children, I have been married for 15yrs and I spend as much time taking photographs as I can. I live outside a small town in Southeastern Oklahoma on Lake Eufaula.

It Feels as though I have always had a camera in my hand, starting with an ol’ Kodak 110 film when I was a little kid…lol…

When I am shooting there is an all consuming Peace that envelopes me…I am able to completely tune out the rest of the world and what is going on…lol which might not always be a good thing

I am self taught and hopefully will never stop learning. I see so much talent here and someday hope to hold just a pinch of that talent.
