I never thought that I could be an artist.

Most of my life I have been taking photos, and recently I decided to take my passion for photography to another level and move it into a profession. My goal is to become not just a professional photographer, but also a Visual Artist whose main tool of art is the camera.  In current times every photographer must have excellent computer skills in order to edit and post-process their photographs.  That is why I will continually work to improve my skills using Adobe Lightroom and Photoshop.  In addition to the digital art, I still like to go back to analog photography and work in the darkroom to develop “old fashioned” black and white prints.   I love every aspect of photography.  As I create pictures, I work with so many different types of people, and I am able to freeze time and space to capture their memories and mine.
