Let's see now. I am thirty *cough* nine and I got married in 2012. No children, but the cat and my husband make plenty of demands for my time and attention.
I have always loved to be creative, ever since I was a child I would draw, paint, make things with scrap paper and wood in my grandfathers shed. It seemed that was the path I was going to follow. It took me a few years from leaving school and working, to return to education, as a mature student, to study art and design. Sadly, due to my health, I didn't manage to finish my degree but what I did learn during my time at college and uni renewed my creative passion.
A few years ago I tried my hand at card making but, whilst I loved what I was producing, I found that I was putting so much effort into each card I simply couldn't make it work as a business.
I took some time out from trying to work out what I wanted to do and just let things be the way they were. My husband bought me my 1st compact digital camera and I rediscovered my passion for photography. For a couple of years I filled up SD cards and External Hard Drives with photo after photo, image after image. I taught myself how to use Photoshop and a few other programs and this year I upgraded my camera to a DSLR.
I adore photographing nature. Whether its plants or animals, horizons or cloud scapes. Mother nature produces such beauty and I simply want to capture it all on camera. I often wish I could just blink and capture the moment right in front of me.
