Born and raised in Stillwater, until around the age of 10 I moved to Bryant Arkansas where I graduated high school in 2004. All during high school and to this day I was very interested in technology and how it can help us with our everyday lives. During my high school career I was an E.A.S.T student and in 2004 I was awarded with the Volunteer of the year award from the Urban Forestry Commission for my work on a project that concluded with Bryant becoming a Tree City U.S.A. After high school I moved back to Guthrie, Ok and attended Francis Tuttle Technology center and earned certifications in web design and development.

 

        When I was finishing up my certifications at Francis Tuttle I earned an internship that later lead into employment at KFOR News Channel 4. I started out working on updating the website through out the day, but ended up editing video for the different broadcasts. In 2006 I decided that I needed more education and started on my degree at the time I didn’t know what I was going to earn a degree in then I pick up my dad’s old camera and my life changed forever. I realized that I truly enjoyed taking photos of well everything. My fate was sealed as it were I decided that I wanted to become a photographer and started earning my degree in photography and digital imaging from Northern Oklahoma College. During school I mostly focused on shooting portraits and weddings and thought that I would stay focused on that, but I love other forms of photography too much to specialize in one thing or another. I’ve now been shooting for five  years and have invested heavily in my equipment, skill, and knowledge. I love this art form and frankly its the only one I’ve found I can do well lol. I now live in Stillwater where I hope to build a business around photography in general not just one genre of the craft and art form. I hope you enjoy my portfolios and please if you have any questions don’t hesitate to contact me.
