I have many more miles to travel on this Photography road and I will always be learning, trying new things. In these attempts I may fail, but I will also learn. Usually after a photo session I am exhausted and feel beaten up, so I don't do this for my ego.

I do Photography because during and after a photo scene I love how the girls react to seeing themselves in a new way.

I see their confidence build. And yes, confidence is sexy, but it is fundamentally more important to have real confidence along with attributes such as intelligence, creative, nurturing, hard working and grace. Confidence is the catalyst for career choices, marriage choices, Lifestyle choices, even the choice of where you will live in the world. It is a powerful statement when a woman with tears in her eyes says to me "I never knew I could look like this!" I usually respond with, I knew it all along.
