From the time I was a kid, I always had a camera in my hand. I used to take pictures of my kids when they were young like it was my part time job!  My passion was always “capturing the moment”  but it wasn’t until a few years ago when I found myself being challenged on one of many of my life altering moments!  I began to accept and experience new opportunities,  beginning to love the person who I was emerging to be, making time for my dreams and my passions which led me into what I always have loved: my love for people and  capturing their unique personalities that tell a story.  I loved to capture many life moments  through the eyes of a lens and fulfill my passion a step further. I bought my first “big girl” camera- a Nikon and became a member of the Cleveland Photographic Society.  I took classes to increase my knowledge on all those “funky gadgets and buttons” .  Since then I am involved in numerous photography groups/clubs  exchanging ideas and information to continually educate ourselves.

Those that know me well can tell you that I have more portraits in my house than one would know what to do with!  They tell a story and this is mine…..just a girl born and raised in Lakewood, Ohio, I have been a Hospice nurse for 12 years and feel truly blessed to be a part of these families lives. 

 I am MOST proud of  being a Mom to Katie and Holly,  although now grown and husbands and lives of their own, they continue to make me proud and inspire me every day!
