Did you know I worked at the Post Office?  Yep, I delivered mail for 12 years in & around Warren, Ohio!  I was a sub for regular carriers, so I worked many different routes & delivered in several local communities including Lordstown, Cortland, Fowler, Diamond & North Jackson.  During my 12 years at the Post Office I graduated college (Kent Trumbull) with my associates degree in Justice Studies, I worked at The Trumbull Country Club as a waitress & I helped my Dad with his auctions.  Photography was a hobby of mine, not a career during these years.

About 10 years ago I decided to quit my job at the post office so I could stay home full time with my babies...I am so incredibly glad I did!  My husband & I watched what we spent & made it work.  We created childhood memories in our backyard with our boys.  I knew once my youngest started kindergarten I wanted to work again...when that day came I took a chance & began charging for my photography (this is the simple short version of me becoming a photographer)!  My youngest is in 5th grade already...time flies!

The TRUTH behind my career is YOU!

I'm able to be a photographer because so many people fall in love, get married, graduate, start families, celebrate milestone anniversaries & run their own businesses...I have years of hands-on experience with capturing posed pictures, candid photos, product images and meaningful portraits.  Each new client and returning client contributes to my career.  Thank you so very much, I enjoy being a busy working mama now (now that my babies are a little older)!

Please, give me a call or shoot me an email the next time you need a photographer...I love my photography career & would love to share it with YOU!

Happy New Year!
