I grew up as an Army Brat, traveling all over the 
      world with my father who always had 4 or 5 cameras with him. Following in 
      my father's footsteps, I joined the Air Force when I was 19 and continued 
      my travels around the US and the world. During that time I enjoyed  painting in 
      watercolors, pastels (my favorite), oils, pencil and  colored pencil.

            In 2002, I met my husband Tom, who is a truck 
      driver. We were married in 2003, and I joined him on the road fulltime in 
      2004 as his co-driver. Unable to paint in the truck, I developed an 
      interest and passion for photography and purchased a small Fuji Finepix 
      camera.... I was off and running! I wasn't satisfied for long with just a 
      point and shoot and developed a strong desire to learn everything I could 
      about photography. 

           So today, with my Nikon D300 and D700, numerous 
      lenses, filters, tripods, etc and my husband (a very understanding man 
      who doesn't complain about the weight of the equipment, the number of 
      lenses or cameras), I continue to travel the US and Canada where I am 
      enjoying the opportunity to capture these vast and spectacular vistas. 
      I hope you will join me on my continuing journey as I post new work.
