>Since my grandmother put a camera in my hands at the age of six, I've been hooked. Curiosity and passion for new experiences keep me from narrowing my work to one specialty so I shoot just about everything. My portraits and travel photographs have graced the cover of various local and regional magazines and newspapers and have appeared in national publications here in my native USA to as far away as Russia. Since I started shooting stock photographs a couple of years ago, I have split my time between taking photos for my editorial, advertising and individual clients and giving myself assignments to come up with stock photo concepts, as well as working as a freelance writer. My website and blog http://travelstockphotos.blogspot.com , like my career, are works in progress. I hope you enjoy my photos as much as I have enjoyed taking them!
