Momtographer

 

 

I guess you could just sum me up as one of those "Momtographers" -a term I came across on social media a few years back. It had a derogatory connotation and implied that we mom photographers who started in the trade by merely taking pictures of our kids, were not "real" photographers.

 

I'm not sure who coined this phrase and what they had against moms, but if I could meet them today I'd probably lick my finger, wipe the chocolate off their face and then ask to take their picture.

 

My kids get all the glory for my photography obsession. They were my original inspiration and though they are not as cute now that they are teenagers, I will forever be taking too many pictures of them...

Dog Lover

 

 

'Nuff said.. 'ruff said? The Ollie- Boos and the Louie- Lous are our boys. They make our lives complete. If all I did was take pictures of dogs for the rest of my life, that would be enough. Or e'ruff ;)

Storyteller

 

 

When I'm not taking pictures of my kids or dogs I'm writing and singing songs for our band Wakelight- an indie folk duo my husband and I started back in 2012. You can listen for free by searching up Wakelight on Youtube or Spotify.
