I am a stay-at-home mom to 4 little ones.  I love being able to stay at home with them but a the same time, I need adult interaction...thank you cafemom! :)  My husband is a work-a-holic and does most of his work out of state so, he's gone a lot too.

I've been married for 8.5 years but have been with my husband for over 13 years now.  

I love love love photography.  It started after my first son was born.  I know...this sounds so typical.... but when Conner was born, I took millions of pictures.  Eventually, I found photo editing/manipulation to do different effects with photos.  My FIL ended up getting a DSLR I was totally jealous of.  I hmm'd and haw'd and drooled over his Canon for over a year.  I finally got my Canon 40D for an anniversary gift in September of 2008.  I've been hooked ever since.

Fast forward to now: I'm also now a student at New York Institute of Photography.  So a true passion for photography can grow from just loving to take snapshots of you favorite in-house models. :)  I love the thought of doing portraiture and weddings one day.  I also like shooting macro and nature as well.
