My first real experience with photography came in Fall of 1994 when I went to work for Glamour Shots! I began as a Wardrobe Coordinator and right on the cusp of the Christmas season .. there wasn't a better time to be dropped into the bucket o' fun that was Glamour Shots than the Christmas Season! Bustiers, feather boas and rhinestone jewelry galore!! In retro-spectavision, it leaves me with a taste of absolute kitsch! I began to ask to work as photog assistant. I really wanted to go in the studio. I loved the flashing and the action. I loved working with the photographer to help people break down their walls and have fun. Around Spring-time, I began to really train to shoot. By the time Christmas rolled around again I was completely comfy in the studio. I went on to work for Glamour Shots on and off until June of 2001. My love of photography has continued to grow and as of 2009 I began tinkering with photography as a hobby again and formed the Shutterbug Coalition. My love of catching those moments that tend to slip by un-captured flourished yet again and in Spring of 2010 I began actually "scheduling paid sessions" and following my passions...
