I started out as an equine photographer and that was all I was going to do. I had always been obsessed with horses, competed, trained, had a boarding business. And it was a nice way to make a little extra money with what I knew. I knew the timing, I knew what competitors were looking for and I really enjoyed it.

My whole path has been somewhat unexpected and sorta took on a life of its own. I shot a fundraiser probably before I was ready but, after three days of 10 hours of shooting for 3 days, I had learned A LOT.

The rest was a slow progression into a real studio business.
