Tell us a little about yourself and your business.
I’m a self taught photographer who’s built my business from the ground up; learning all I can about photography from online classes, in person workshops and seminars, and tons of reading and practice! My business education started way before I began photography. I’ve owned my own businesses since 1995, so at least I had that under my belt before I began to learn the art of photography!
I started photography in 2003 and while it was a part time business, the real part of the business actually began in 2005. Although I took photography in High School, my inspiration really began with the birth of my granddaughters.
What do you like the most about your job?
Snuggling with newborns every day! I think I have withdrawals if I don’t have a baby in my arms. lol
How do you come up with inspirations for new ideas?
I peruse anything I can find that speaks “pure, natural or organic.” It can be magazines, clothing, furniture, or a vintage store. I see something that sparks an idea and then my mind just goes crazy!
How do you balance your business and family life?
Well, all my kids are practically grown now. My youngest graduates high school in a few weeks, so I pretty much have my days to myself. When there’s an event or something going on, I just plan it in my schedule and do it. I am a bit of a workaholic though, I must admit. I love what I do and sometimes it’s hard to pull me away.
Anything you would like to add?
I love life! Every day is a new adventure for me and I try to live it to the fullest!!
Thank you so much Robin! x
