Hi, there, and welcome to my blog! I’m Christy and as you’ll find out as you read here, I love adventure, laughter and children, talking with friends, music, debates, and going out for coffee. I enjoy life with my wonderful husband Steve and our sons Zachary and Ian. I am grateful to God who gives true meaning to life.
I have always enjoyed observing beauty. As a teenager I’d walk out to the middle of a field or the crest of a hill where I could bask in the wonder of the world around me. Before long I’d burst out in a song or start writing (whether in my head or a journal varied from time to time) about what I was seeing–the blend of colors, the tall grasses whispering to each other, the freedom of the birds. I dreamed of being able to paint, like my mother was able to do, the world as I saw it. I never could bring to life on canvas what I felt with my heart. Now, through photography I am being able to express that beauty. When I glimpse the genuine expression of a person’s spirit captured in a portrait, I feel a sense of fulfillment and purpose.
As a photographer, I specialize in natural light, on-location photography. I love photographing children and thoroughly enjoy working with them–yup, even if they don’t just sit, pose, and smile. :) I have lots of practice chasing after a busy toddler and I do love the natural look of kids on the go.
I hope that you will be able to experience with me the joy and beauty of life, people, and the details of the world around us.
Feel free to contact me. I love hearing from you!!
