I have enjoyed photography as an escape for over 45 years. Originally starting with film cameras and photographed mostly as a hobby. When I was in my 20s, I worked part time in a camera store in the Cleveland area of Ohio. I put photography on the side, because working in film was expensive to process and buy film.

I began my career at NASA as a Computer operator and became a Database Analyst. Also volunteered to photograph at Young Astronauts Day and events for AIAA.  After having children and having other priorities, photography again became a hobby and couldn’t purchase the equipment that I wanted. However, in 2018 and beyond, I was able to purchase a real digital camera D850 and then in 2022, I was able to purchase my first mirrorless camera a Nikon Z6 II and then purchased a Nikon z9 and was able to purchase used and new prime and zoom lenses. I’ve listened to countless YouTube photographers and Photoshop videos. Now, I am looking to be able to share some of my photos that, I have taken and attempt to make a few dollars to recoup some of the expenses of the equipment.

I enjoy photographing Landscape, wildlife, Portrait, Events. With my flower photos or landscape photos, I like to add an artistic look to the photos.
