In the past when asked if I was a professional photographer I responded with the statement, “Well I’ve made money with my photography by shooting weddings and portraits and selling a few framed prints. But, I do not make my living at it.” I feel differently now. When I can create an image that moves me and someone else then I feel I’m more than just a photographer. I’ve moved into a newer stage of my photographic adventure. Maybe that’s professional, I’m not sure only time will tell. As I develop my photographic eye and practice my skills, I’ve begun to see portraits with newer eyes. I see how important it is to bring out the personality of the person, showing both their outward and inward beauty. Hopefully, I’ve accomplished that in this image.

Retired. Having fun with photography. Journal daily. Meditate daily. Learning haiku/poetry. Have a love for fountain pens.
