What do you love to photograph the most? I love capturing the sweet expressions of children and providing families with a memory that they will cherish for a lifetime.
What is one thing you have learned that has improved your photography? I learned two very important things from Kevin Gourley that go hand in hand which has improved the clarity of my photos: When hand holding your camera, the shutter speed should match or exceed the lens focal length and the proper lighting makes all the difference.
Advice you’d give to others wanting to grow in their photography skills: Take pictures at least weekly to improve photography skills and take classes to increase your knowledge for both technique and editing.
