Not the standard quote for the day but I can say that I’ve always been inspired to photograph truthfully. I’ve been taking pictures since I was able to hold a camera and as I age I continue to hone my photography. The pictures I take are things I want to remember, things that catch my eye and things I want others to see which is why I share my work.

Before I moved to Ohio I had about 250 followers on Instagram and now I have over 1200 followers. So I must be doing something right.
