I am a city and landscape photographer based out of Fairhope, Alabama.  What hooked me was a trip to Hawaii in 2013.  At the end of each night I uploaded photos I had taken that day and viewed them on an iPad.  I can still remember how exciting it was to look through those photos each night.  Not long after returning, I got my first dslr camera and the rest is history.  Today, I have found that I am able to duplicate that exciting feeling at different moments throughout the process.  Seeing one of my images go from the display of my camera, to my monitor, to a print, and finally into a frame is increasingly gratifying.  There is something therapeutic about capturing an image and staying with it through the printing, matting, and framing process.  Photography brings me great joy and I consider it to be a lifelong pursuit of mine.
