A little bit about me...
A little bit about....
I love photography! I love being able to capture what I see on film. I knew from the time I was a young girl that I wanted to have photography in my life. I went to college in Willmar Minnesota @ Ridgewater College. I attended a two year program designed just for photography. I was taught B&W, Colored, Medium format, Large format. I was also taught portrait photography and commercial photography. I was a 4.0 student while I was there and I soaked up everything they taught me.
When I have the camera with me I feel alive and I love the challenge of finding the "right" photo. I do wedding photography during the summer months and always available for family, senior or children portraits. I am slowly trying to collect back drops and props so right now I am mostly on location for portraits.
I love the feelings that stir in me when I pick up my camera. I know it sounds strange but I feel like I know who I am when I pick up that camera. I feel a sense of completeness. I love the challenges that arise in finding the perfect photo. I love capturing that photo that someone will cherish for years to come. I love how I can take a photograph and 5 years later I can look at it and tell you all the details, like the lighting conditions, how the people were during the photo session and I also can tell you exactly what I was feeling while taking that photo. It's amazing how photography can make me feel complete. I know that God gave me this talent so that I could make memories for others. To capture that rare smile or look forever. I take pride in my photography and I am a perfectionist so I will work and work at something until it's just how I have it envisioned. I love when someone calls me because they want me to take their family photograph because that means I'm helping create a memory that will last forever.
