The Photo

Ask a photographer when they realized that this was more than a hobby and they'll often be able to pinpoint that answer in a single image.

 This is mine.

This image changed my life, setting in motion a series of events that made me not only take photography more seriously, but to accept that I was in a place that I could potentially turn this into a career. 

I had the eye.

I had the timing.

I had the passion.

What I was missing was the direction.

This photo caught the attention of a well known photographer in February of 2021 who invited me into a fledgling Facebook group. 

Today, I'm proud to call him my mentor, and thank him for giving me the push I needed to take the next step in my life's journey.
