As I sit here, looking at the stunning photos displayed on my wall, I can't help but smile at the journey that led me here. It wasn't always easy, and there were times when I wanted to give up and just focus on my career, but my passion for photography kept me going.
I remember the first time I picked up a camera. It was a small point and shoot that my parents had given me as a gift, and from the moment I held it in my hands, I knew that photography was going to be a huge part of my life. I started by taking pictures of anything and everything, learning as much as I could about composition and lighting.
As I got older and my career took off, I found myself with less and less time to pursue my passion. But I never forgot about it, and whenever I could, I would take my camera out and snap a few shots. Eventually, I decided that it was time to retire and focus on what really made me happy - photography.
I started taking classes and investing in the best equipment I could find. I spent hours reading and researching, learning everything there was to know about Photoshop and Lightroom. And when drones became popular, I knew I had to add them to my arsenal.
Now, I travel the world in search of the perfect landscape photograph. From the majestic mountains to the sprawling cityscapes, I am always on the lookout for that one shot that will take my breath away. And while I may never find the perfect photo, I am constantly amazed by the beauty that surrounds me and am grateful for the opportunity to capture it through my lens.
It's been a long and winding road, but I wouldn't have it any other way. Photography has brought me so much joy and fulfillment, and I am grateful for every moment I get to spend behind the camera.
One of my bucket list photo shoots was Wild Horses. In 2023 I went to Utah and Oklahoma in search of these beautiful animals. In 2024 I ventured over to Arizona to the Salt River area. I saw beautiful horse after horse in this picturesque hillside setting. This photo is one of my favorites. I arrived before 6:00am and hiked several miles out to where they were feeding that morning. I was able to get this photo of a beautiful white/tan horse and make a composite with a dark background and sun shining.
