Hello! And thank you for checking out my landscape photography! This is where my whole journey started. Realizing that I had a LOT to learn about how my camera works and where all the buttons are, I spent 2024 taking pictures of the most perfectly patient clients of all - cactus. They don't wiggle and fuss as I fight to figure out the perfect angle and settings. And when they bloom?! I mean, those giant flower hats just do all the work. And most importantly at the time, I had a home to decorate! There was no real intention of ever making money at this point. I didn't want a job. I was busy enough with three kids and the hunt for friends, thank you very much. But we did have a number of beautifully rustic framed cactus blossom photos in our ownership already, and my husband pointed out it might be cheaper if we didn't have to continue to buy them at boutiques any more.

It was, in fact, not cheaper. Read more about my photography story here.
