Where do you find inspiration?Inspiration strikes me the moment my eyes peer through the lens. Seeing all the angles and details fitting perfectly within my minds frame, lights up my soul. I love seeing the faces of homeowners who have put so much love into the spaces they’ve created, when they get their photos back.
What would you do with $25,000?If I won $25,000, it would help my husband and I start our family and build our dream of a family compound—because who doesn’t want built-in babysitters? As a photographer, I’d invest in a studio and gear to grow my business. And my heart would take me to orphanages in Africa, using photography to serve and share stories that deserve to be seen.
