My love of photography began when I was eighteen years old and graduating high school, when my parents gave me my first camera as a graduation gift. My early experiences were documenting a cross-country journey as I traveled from California, where I born and raised, to New Hampshire where I now live with my family.
I used this camera for the next ten years to document my travels around the globe with my husband who served in the Air Force. I captured images in places like Texas, Hawaii and the beautiful beaches of Guam. I even photographed the nations capital in all its glory. I have also documented the growing of my two children.
The more pictures I took the more I realized how much I loved photography and what my pictures meant to me and others who saw them. I have read many books and have taken some classes to expand my knowledge of photography.
Here in New Hampshire, I enjoy traveling to places just to take pictures of what New Hampshire has to offer. I began to frame my photographs and give them as gifts to friends and family on special occasions. Soon I began taking portraits for friends and co-workers to use as Christmas cards or as the family portrait.
In 2003, after nearly twenty years of taking pictures, I decided to turn my love of photography into a business and founded Nature's Treasures Photography. It is a business I run from my home while raising my children and supporting my husband in his travels and life endeavors.
I began doing art shows during the summer and selling my landscape photography, I was very successful and decided to expand my business to include portraits and weddings. I truly enjoy photographing the most special time of two peoples lives.
So if you are looking for landscape photographs to display in your home, or if you are looking for a portrait or wedding photographer and you want your pictures taken by someone who loves what I do, give me a call. Because I truly understand how documenting special moments or places through the art of a good photograph is. I have even found beauty in a simple frozen mud puddle.
