My brother gave me my first hand-me-down camera when I was 10; an East German Werra 35mm range finder. The anticipation of seeing my photos when they came back from the lab was exciting but my love of photography was set in stone when seeing negatives come to life in the darkroom. I perfected my skills through high school and college and often wondered what my life would be like if I turned my hobby into a business. Photographers and architects trained and mentored me along the way so I took the plunge in 1991. The studio opened in 2003 and is the perfect location for headshots, portraits, products and filming interviews. Passion, courage, and persistence all play a role in my long term success. It’s all about making connections, building community and satisfying your client’s needs.
