My favorite quote: "I like too many things and get all
confused and hung-up falling star to another till I drop.
This is the night, what it does to you. I had nothing to
offer anybody except my own confusion."

When I'm not taking photos, I . . .
... love to cook
... go running in my funny yellow sneakers
... play with my dogs, Buster & Barney
... dvd the day away with my husband Bill
... cruise the highways to rodeos and team ropings
... read enlightening books and fashion mags
... road trip and travel with good friends
... am a friend, a daughter, a sister, an aunt and a wife.
My absolute favorite website?...
(I google everything!)
I am happy and proud to say that I was born and raised smack dab in the middle of the heartland and continue to live there. My husband and I, and our two dogs, raise cattle and horses on a ranch located on the Rosebud Indian Reservation in South Dakota. I have many wonderful friendships and a loving supportive family... what's not to love!? It's a beautiful life and I could not ask for more.
I never thought that I would be a part of the photography world. I was an aspiring writer and during my college years as a newspaper reporter, I discovered that I enjoyed the photography more than the note taking and typing. I consider myself a photographic artist and believe photography is art. As Andrew McKean said, “The only thing that makes a good photo is if you like the photo.”
