Photography had been on my radar since grade school when I got very interested in the Beatles and was reading everything I could get my hands on about them. It was through that that I learned about Linda McCartney and her photography work.

When I was studying in both Dijon and Paris, I would share photographs of my daily life and adventures through an early photo-sharing site (we’re talking well before Instagram!). I received so much positive feedback about my photos and so much encouragement to sell them that I decided to go for it! Special thanks to those early encouragers. 💚

If I hadn’t studied in France – the most beautiful and inspirational place I’ve ever been – I’m not sure I would have ever started with photography in any serious capacity.
