Who am I?

Ever since I was a kid I've always been interested in photography. I got my first camera before I was in 3rd grade, it was a bright yellow film camera that came in a little kit for kids. Unfortunately that camera never worked for me. When I was going into 3rd grade my family moved to New Life Ranch in Oklahoma where I had hundreds of summer camp kids to hang out with, but I chose to follow the camera man around instead. In 8th grade one of my classes required us to job shadow someone in a career field we were interested in so of course I got to hang out with a photographer friend of ours. The next camera I got was my freshman year of high school. For some reason every camera I ever got broke on me. It wasn't till this past Christmas (2015) that my husband, fiance at the time, decided he wanted to support me and this passion of mine and bought me the nicest camera I've ever held. I had no idea how it worked so throughout the past year I've been googling and reaching out to fellow photographers for tips and advice. Pretty early on I was aware that I didn't want to photograph people, but instead wildlife and nature. I have big dreams of expanding my lens collection and my photo gallery but for now I'm loving what I have and am making the most of it!
