"All my life I have always loved taking photos and have photos of anything and everything.

I have 3 teenage children and since they were born I have a record of their lives in photos. Animals have always been an interest to me as I was brought up on a farm.

Two years ago I took photos at my cousins wedding as a gift for her. I had often been told that my photos were excellent and had many more varied shot unlike some professional photographers. I decided if I was going to turn professional I would need some qualifications.

I therefore decided to attend college studying for my city and guilds in photography, where I achieved 3 distinctions. The course helped me to understand a lot more about photography and has improved my photos.

I now take photos as my profession allowing others to enjoy my work as much as I do."
