A bit about me

Falling in love with photography came easy for me.  I was ready for some creativity.   Some quick things about where I came from.  

I am from Dallas Texas and went to a small school kindergarten to senior year.   I was a collegiate cheerleader at Texas Tech University and I met my husband there. I studied Finance and Economics of all things! I then became a high-heeled wearing equities trader for a hedge fund for the few years between college and motherhood.   I loved that job, but motherhood changed my life and my passion became my children.   Photography became a natural extension of capturing my children’s life moments.   I couldn’t just settle for mediocracy...  I know numbers and I want to know why my camera is doing what it is doing.  Several hundred hours later of classes, workshops, reading  and seminars… here I sit with my Canon camera (I’m a big time Canon girl) in front of my imac (I’m a big time Mac girl).  Actually a teacher nicknamed me that once… Mac girl.  

So what is in my bag??  The Canon 5D Mark II, 50mm 1.2, 24-70 2.8, and the 70-200 2.8 IS…
