Meet Tina

Hello, Hello! I am Tina and I love to laugh! I have been married for eight years. And this is actually my 2nd marriage to my husband......we got married in 8th grade in our government class in junior high :). He also was my neighbor. AND he looks like Joey McIntyre. NKOTB? You might be too young. Or I might be too old?

I like to ramble. I can be random. I like clothes, makeup, hair, and fashion. It inspires my photography. So does music. Sometimes I see shoots in my head like music videos before I even shoot them. I have two children. My kids are probably the funniest most awesome people I have ever met and I think its kinda cool I made them! Well, with a little help from God.......and their father :) My family keeps me smiling daily and I am so blessed to have them in my life. I love them. I started to really explore photography when my youngest was born. Yes, I was the mom with the rebate check from Costco ready to buy a camera! But like most things I do, I became immersed in learning. Soon I couldn't get enough of photography. Melissa was the first person I met in the photography community and I was drawn to her honesty and knowledge of the art. The first time I met her she told me "learn light and your photography will be ahead of many." And what she said has stuck with me on every shoot. Actually, everyday -- whether I have my camera or not -- this is how I see the world. Looking for light. Looking for moments. Looking for smiles. Real ones. Cause I like those. Not these colon-parentheses-thingys :)
