Devoted, Determined and Deeply Loved
This is one of dozens of photos I have of this very special guy, but it's my favorite for many reasons. Obviously, the light was perfect when I turned and saw it, and it framed up nicely, but the most important part is his intense focus on what you can't see. He's not just watching the sunset.

Breaking the Depression Through the Lens
In the early 1980s, my brother graduated from high school and spent a year working for a local moving company while deciding what to do with his life. Our mother insisted that he attend a Christian college, so he looked for a school that would allow him to play baseball, and he eventually settled on Covenant College because our middle sister had discovered it and recommended it to him. Covenant is located on Lookout Mountain, Georgia, just across the state line from Lookout Mountain, Tennessee, where the famous Rock City can be found.

The Third Child
This little furry potato in the wagon with his brothers, is absolutely undoubtedly my favorite photo of all time. Everyone thought I was crazy, and I probably was at the time. I was grappling with the fact that my ex-husband and I were getting a divorce. I felt like I was loosing half my identity, knowing that I was no longer a wife. My worst fears had come true, the stigma and cycle of being a single parent hadn't been broken in this life time.

Old Enough To Get There But Too Young To Get Inside
It all started with Dolly. In 2016, my family took a trip to Gatlinburg. My whole family...mom, dad, sisters, aunt, uncles, cousins, grandparents, everyone. We stayed in one of the mansion-size cabins associated with Dollywood and spent several days in the park (in addition to getting lost trying to find our white water rafting dock and arguing with my mother about buying a pair of real boots because my feet had finally stopped growing). It was a great trip. It was also then that my youngest sister, Erin, began her obsession with Dolly Parton.

Unforgettable Moments Frozen in Time: The Power of Photography
Photographs capture fleeting moments, creating a lasting legacy that spans generations. They encapsulate emotions, stories, and the essence of experiences in a single frame. A powerful image can resonate deeply, evoking feelings that words often fail to convey.

A Dolphin Encounter
Somewhere near the coast of the beautiful island of Cozumel I had and experience that I’d never forget as long as I live. Before I can tell you, what happened, I must tell you the events that preceded it. In the year 2004, my brother convinced the family to go on a cruise. We had so much fun that we went again in 2007. That was the end of our cruise-going journeys for the time.

Caught in Time: A Glimpse into a Powerful Moment
Have you ever experienced the profound impact of a singular photograph? The adage that a picture is worth a thousand words may often seem clichéd, until one encounters an image that simply leaves them breathless.

"Forever Young, Bon Jovi live." . Honorable Mention in Through the Lens Challenge.
That evening the summer air was charged with energy. Standing amid thousands of supporters like me in the stadium, our hearts aflutter and hands clamming with expectation. Years of listening to Bon Jovi through headphones and speakers—now he would come live before us personally. This was not only a concert; it was twenty years waiting for this daydream to come true.

Sadie’s Way
My whole life I’ve always made a conscious effort to avoid having close intimate relationships with people. The key phrase in what I just said is “With People”. I guess the good Lord refused to let this apply to man’s best friend. I met one of my closest friends, Elizabeth while attending college in Jamestown, North Carolina in 2011. We became close friends in 2013 and I eventually met her son and her dog, a pitbull name Sadie and I have picture of her that is worth a thousand words.

Dipping My Toes in Social Transitioning
My first chest binder was from Gc2b. And I absolutely loved it when I had it. It was one of the coolest things in the world. A step towards me becoming the person that I wanted to be. In all honesty, it was by far the most wonderful moment for me. Even though it wasn’t all that comfortable.

Beneath the Olive Sky. Honorable Mention in Through the Lens Challenge.
On a snowy night, I hesitated to leave the comfort of my warm home. The cold outside mixed with windy snowfall seemed much more intense than the stillness of my room. We only needed one thing from the store, a quick little errand that felt like a major inconvenience, but as often happens, this single task led us out into the frigid world. Originally, we planned to go farther down the road to a bigger store. But as we neared the stop sign, the bright neon blue lights of a smaller, nearby store caught my eye. It was closer–and cheaper. Something about that light, so present against the darkened sky, drew me in, abandoning the original plans.
