“I would characterize my photography style as being creative, meeting and overcoming challenges, and striving for uniqueness and perfection. I infuse human emotion into my subject matter while simultaneously capturing a moment in time for everyone to enjoy. I love making that magic happen! I am guided everyday by the saying:
‘It’s not your aptitude but your attitude that determines your altitude”.”
