No, I’m not from Texas. No accent, no cowboy boots (yet), I have been suppressing the urge to say y’all way more than I ever thought. I was born in the burbs of Chicago, raised in the burbs of New York City, and got my Bachelor of Fine Arts in Photography from the Maryland Institute College of Art in Baltimore. I am here because I fell in love with a wonderful man. Right before he joined the Air Force. I mean like 2 months before. We did long distance for four years and now that we are geographically together, well, it is amazing. I love the way it feels to share my life with someone. I have someone by my side, pushing me to grow, wanting what is best for me, and I am stronger because of it. We are far from perfect but strive to fall deeper into our understanding of our love everyday. I know how strong our love is and I am inspired when I meet two people who are also in love. Everyone has a different way of showing it but it is always there, in the touches, the smiles, the laughter. I see it not only in couples but in families and friends too. Love is what makes me passionate about my work.
