Welcome!

So, here we are! At this point for Blog post #1, you probably know me already. But, just in case you stumbled along my website by accident, or maybe semi on purpose, I'll give you a brief peak into who I am in a nutshell. I have been a nurse for nearly 18 years, just finished my bachelor's degree, and am applying to graduate school. I have been married to a wonderful guy for 16 years. We have two dogs, and like to spoil them. We spend free time on two wheels, you may have seen the pictures of our motorcycles in Nature Landscapes and Fun gallery. 

I love to cook, and LOVE photography. There is something therapeutic to me to stand in the kitchen and know I have made something good. I thrive on feeding people. There is also a sense of peace when I get to see a beautiful picture that I took or learn something new with my camera. Both are a continuous learning process. 

Shooting photos was for fun, but now I really want to make a go of a business. Extra income to pay student loans, another profession where I can love what I am doing.  
 
My Blog posts will probably be about my photography journey, tips and tricks,  new recipes, and what ever else my brain comes up with! Join me on my journey!

My first tip for new photographers:  When shooting in a public garden, always ask about the timing of sprinklers! Otherwise you end up cussing like a drunk sailor as you run to save your equipment! At least if you me, that's what you do! Not a pretty site, I'm sure!
