PHOTOGRAPHY HAS BEEN A PART OF MY LIFE FOR YEARS, ORIGINALLY THROUGH SHOOTING SPORTS. SOMEWHERE ALONG THE WAY, MY CAMERA STARTED FOLLOWING ME TO TRUCK SHOWS, CAR MEETS, RACES AND AUTOMOTIVE EVENTS MY FAMILY WAS ALREADY SPENDING OUT TIME AT.

A LOT OF THAT SHIFT STARTED WITH MY HUSBAND AND OUR SHARED LOVE FOR OLD TRUCKS. I HAVE TO GIVE HIM CREDIT FOR ENCOURAGING ME TO TAKE MY CREATIVE SIDE AND TURN IT INTO SOMETHING MORE. WHAT STARTED AS ANOTHER HOBBY WE ENJOYED TOGETHER QUICKLY BECAME A PASSION I DIDN'T KNOW I HAD.

THE BEST PART? OUR WHOLE FAMILY LOVES IT. WE GET TO SPEND THE WEEKENDS TOGETHER AT THE EVENTS WE ALREADY ENJOY, WHILE I GET TO CREATE AND CAPTURE THE BUILDS, PEOPLE, ACTION, AND DETAILS THAT MAKE THE AUTOMOTIVE COMMUNITY WHAT IT IS.

SHUTTER & GRIT GREW FROM ALL OF THAT AND THAT'S EXACTLY WHAT I WANT IT TO STAY ABOUT.
