About me
Always appreciate friend requests, but please post a comment or a tag, that way I know you're not just a spammer or trying to "collect" friends and that you actually looked at my work.  Thanks. smile

We're all here to capture beautiful images.  This is my creative outlet that lets me reach for new and unique ways to keep photography fresh and interesting.  My goal is to capture the beauty and intrinsic art of the female form.  I hope to find interesting and creative new people to work with, as well as those I've already had the pleasure to colaborate with.  I come up with my own projects from time to time but I'm open to new ideas as well, the challenge is what's fun about photography.  Don't hesitate to contact me if you want to schedule a shoot.  I'm ready to create something beautiful. 

A little more about myself.  I started dabbling in photography when I bought my first itty bitty digital 2 megapixel camera back in 2001.  I started out taking pictures of wildlife, landscapes, and macro images.  Sort of fell into photographing people and was encouraged to go pro.  I eventually found a great mentor, a professional photographer of over 20 years, who trashed the first set of portraits I showed him and then told me what I needed to do to improve.  Thank you Ron.  Bought my first Digital SLR and supplement gear in April 2003, the week I booked my first wedding.  It's been a fun ride so far and I'm not looking to stop anytime soon. 

Scott's useless details:  (I totally stole this idea from Kymberly Jane. tongue )

* I have a BA in English Liturature of all things. 
* I've never had plastic surgery.  All my cellulite is real baby!
* I have no tattoos.
* I'm a dork and a geek all in one.
* I think I'm funny at least.
* I'm a martial artist.
* I'm totally bummed that Battlestar Galactica ended after only 4 seasons.
What else can I tell ya? smile

And just to keep up the rivalry among photographers...

Thanks for stopping by my page Scott! In a few weeks I'll be half done with my nursing program, it's so hard to believe! I still don't know what I'll do when I graduate, not sure if I'll stay here or scoot on back to the west coast- I suppose it'll depend on the job market :).

I'll be home for the holidays! Help me spread the word and book some shoots- living on student loans and government aid is rough! ;)

HAPPY HOLIDAYS!!!
