Mirror mirror burnt to ash

A few years ago, I was devastated to learn that my mother's home caught fire in the middle of the night and burned to the ground. This mirror hung in her living room for years. This is another of my favorite images, and another that further firms my belief that I have a gift.
The fire was a tragedy, only two little furry lives were lost, but it could have been so much worse. Each day is a gift, treasure the lives you hold close to you.

Help me live!!!

Hello all!

I'm doing my best to make my way through the last two years of college so I can truly begin my journey and build my body of work. Your thoughts and prayers are gratefully recieved, but a little bit of dough helps!

Thank you for your continued support and I'll be posting a new pic every week so check back!

This is it

Right here. Right now. In this very moment, I knew what my life would mean. A quick snap changed everything. I had goals and ambitions. That one little click of the lens changed it all.

Above you will find a photo of my brother, Derek. This shot is the one that changed my life, so I only find it fitting to open my new blog with the one that started it all. I had been an international affairs major a few years ago. I was hell-bent on running away to Africa after graduation to save all those starving children. Right. That's when my brother asked me to shoot his senior pictures since I was the only one who had a digital camera and he couldn't really afford the professionals. So we made our way out to an abandoned farm in the country and shot away. We came out with some amazing works but this is by far my favorite. Mostly because of the sense of pride it instilled in me. I feel like...no... I know this is what I'm going to do with my life. It may seem hokey to some, but this is the one that started it all. Now 5 awards and many publications later, I'm here to stay.

Welcome to my work.
