I have always loved photography, it's in my blood! My best memories growing up are from looking at hundreds of photos that my grand daddy had taken and had made into slides. He would take out the projector and set up his screen in their den and we'd sit and watch images of their vacations or silly pictures he had taken of us and of course the ever famous bird and flower pictures! He always had a camera. We used to giggle at some of them but now I just remember being so amazed at what he had captured and I never got tired of looking at them. (I still love looking at his photos) I always loved looking at books filled with photos too...sure reading was okay but the pictures were way more interesting. I was always the one holding the camera when I got older and getting in everyone's faces trying to capture every little memory I could. Once my kids were born it became so much more important to me to freeze every little moment because I never wanted to forget a thing. Every milestone or event my kids are involved in, I'm the mom with the camera!
Now that I'm a stay-at-home mom with 3 kids, something that used to be a hobby has slowly but surely turned into more for me, but I've always been a little afraid to jump in with both feet. So I decided it was time to learn more and try everything I could to get better at what I love. Which is ultimately why I chose the name for the blog. I'm constantly my worst critic and I will always want to learn more about the art of photography. There is inspiration everywhere you look and learning to use your camera to translate it for the rest of the world is such an awesome challenge so sign me up!!
