I have never considered myself an “artist” growning up. Far from it really, always thought I was more methodical in thinking, until the past few years.  When I started to really obsess about taking photos, it was to make sure i documented my own family’s life. To help myself and my girls remember the everyday moments we lived.

More and more I loved playing around with different photoshop processes, lens, angles, camera, etc. I feel in love with the art of capturing everyday life. It helped me realize I am an artist. Maybe not a Picaso or DiVinci but an artist all the same. Now, I carry around a moleskin journal and write down thoughts, songs, inspirations, whatever I hear or see. I use those notes to help inspire my photography.  I have also started taking guitar lessons and LOVE it! My only wish is I would have started a long time ago. I could be a ROCK STAR! What was I thinking!!!

Why am I telling you this? Well, as we get older we feel like we can’t or shouldn’t do something. It’s too late to start learning some thing new. I say “no it’s NOT” find a passion no matter what it is and do it. We don’t all have to become rich n famous to enjoy our hobbies and life.  Life is about loving what you do, to let your soul shine with happiness because it’s what you want to be or do. So go out and try.
