This is just the beginning...


Biography
Hello, thanks for taking a peek at my work. A few things about me: I like Texas, sweet tea, heavy rain, travelling, good documentaries, being near the water, window seats on airplanes and the Vitamin String Quartet. I am currently a freelance photojournalist in Texas. I graduated this May and I am eager to get to work. I am a huge family girl and very much a home-body, but I still love the thrill of going to new places and meeting new people. Photography, my family, my dog and my boyfriend are all at the center of my joy and sanity everyday, and I will forever be grateful to them. 

Ok, down to business.
