So, a little about me...I`ve been photographing weddings since 1998. Looking back, I think my path to photography started when I was a young child. I was raised in a home that subscribed to National Geographic magazines so I was saturated with good photography. And I`d traveled all over the world with my parents. When I was 16 I was in the gardens of Versailles in France, and I recall having an overwhelming thought that I was going to be a photographer. Yet life is complex, the path had many turns. But the harder path is usually the right path. The future arrived and here I am doing what I always knew I would. The first professional camera I ever owned was given to me by my dad. A Nikon F2a. I cut my photographic teeth on one of the finest 35mm film cameras ever made, and it still takes gorgeous pictures. I`ve dragged that rig all over the world, to college (a world of it`s own) yet I think the most memorable trip I ever took with it was when I went to Israel and Egypt about 20 years ago. That camera is part of the inner landscape of who I am. My love for photography grew out of my love for the past, my own memories are preserved by the photographs I possess. The feelings evoked from just one image can be very powerful. I think that`s why we all love looking at them. They take us back and grant us time to feel that moment again. I deal with things that are gone in a heartbeat, but photography allows me to speak in a language that is evergreen. Babies grow, the wedding day comes to a close, the photos last forever. Remember that someday, 100 years from now someone in your family will have your photographs. They`ll turn them over in their hands, understanding as I do, that they`re holding priceless pieces of paper with the faces of their loved ones caught within the corners. My husband took that photograph of me on a beautiful cloudy autumn day. We were sitting in our living room talking with my best friend. Light poured through the windows and he caught a small moment as I looked outside during a pause in the conversation. I find that quite often it`s the ordinary things that mean the most, and when captured they can take on extraordinary meaning. And that`s the point and purpose of photography, the images should gain importance over time, eventually becoming priceless, classic. It`s time to tell your story...
