I have been taking pictures all my life. My 1st camera was a 110 cartridge camera, (yes, I'm telling my age.. lol), and now I use primarily a Nikon D7100, a HUGE step in technology. In my early 20's, after completing a tour with the United States Navy, I became an X-ray Tech, so I was still taking photos, so to speak. And in my 30's I went into radiation therapy, but I never stopped taking photographs. In the last few years, I've had so many friends ask me to take photos for all different types of events, so I decided to make a business of it. Like the saying goes, if you're doing what you love, you'll never work a day!
