Art-Inthreadable near Sumas BC (1875 Result(s))

Photography found me as a young art student intent on majoring in painting and sculpture. I needed to take an options course and I liked to take pictures so I thought why not? It sounds like fun! I borrowed my Dad's 35mm Canon AE1 and headed off to class. I still vividly recall that moment in the dark room when I saw my first print magically developing and I just knew that I had found myself and what I was meant to do. Photography has changed a lot since then - and much like life itself - keeping up with the changes isn't always the smoothest road, but my love and joy for it and the people I photograph has never changed. Seeing the expressions on people's faces and hearing their reactions to what I have seen in them and created for them is one of life's greatest gifts for me. I have learned from my own experiences that there aren't many guarantees in life and we often take much for granted we put off important things saying Oh next year we will get around to that and then before we know it kids have grown and changed or someone had passed on and we are filled with regret that we just didn't do it and missed the moment - often understanding the immeasurable worth of it in hindsight when photos are what we have left to rekindle memories and cherish those times. Creating powerful images that stir the imagination and celebrate the miracle of each life is what my photography is all about.
