So how did I get to this point in my career? People often ask if I went to school. I smile and say, Yes, I did! Just not in photography! I have a Bachelors and Masters Degree in Music. Nearly 8 years of intense education! I have to give myself credit for that! So where does the photography training come in?

While in Graduate School, I took up photography to give myself a break from the intensity and narrow focus of my program. I had been shooting about a year on my own, when I met Dustin Fife, a professional photographer who was looking for a piano teacher! After meeting each other we discovered that we could certainly benefit from one another! So, I taught Dustin weekly piano lessons and in exchange I got weekly private camera lessons from a fabulous teacher! For Eight Months! This was the perfect learning opportunity for me! In January 2008 I joined with Ron Adair, another photography genius. I spent three months working with him as his secretary/part-time image editor/knowledge sponge! I really owe so much to Dustin and Ron! Thanks guys!

I believe in photography education. My experience with these great instructors made a complete difference in my approach to my camera, my artistry, and my confidence. As such, I believe in helping to educate others to be able to have similar experiences. Please check out my photography classes for varied opportunities for learning, as well as follow our photography blog for weekly tips and tricks to improve your own photography!
