Hello, welcome, if you are joining, This is all about pet photography. You know Pets!!!! It could be any pet, dog, cat, snake, turtle, rats, mice, bunnies, anything that you can take care of as long as it is an animal.
I was born and raised in Battle Creek, Michigan and moved to the Jackson area when I was 15 years old, where I still reside. I have three beautiful daughters, who I love very much, grown and on their own.
I remember when I was 14 years old looking at a Japanese pen and ink drawing of a fox tail weed with snow on it and a distant mountain shrouded in fog. Something about that picture intrigued me and I became interested in art.
I've never taken formal art or photography classes, mostly self taught through trial and error. Friends and relatives encouraged me to pursue photography.
I made my own pictures in a 'wet' darkroom for a long time. Developed my film and printed the pictures.
Then in February of 2008 I transitioned to all digital. Sold some of my film related photography items on a large internet auction site and began to purchase digital equipment.
I am currently a Certified Massage Therapist practicing Neuromuscular Therapy and Myofascial Therapy in Jackson and Ann Arbor Michigan.
