Welcome to our blog!

Hello! Helen here. Welcome to our blog where we can share with you the development of our brand new photography business. 

A little bit about me....

I'm a wife and mother of 2, Cheyenne (9) and Sean (13). Jimmy and I have been married for going on 15 years. We have 4 horses (Titus, Annie, Rowdy and Koa Chee (?? Don't ask me how to spell that one, will have to ask Jimmy)). We have one donkey named Larry, two dogs (Oreo and Jacko) and a cat (Sam-Sam). 

I work full time as a 9-1-1 supervisor for the city agency here and Jimmy works as a Sgt (soon to be Lt) for the same department. I've been there for 10 years now.

My passion for photography started out as a passion for digital scrapbooking. When my sister tried to get me into scrapbooking I was never interested until she told me she'd read an article in a scrap magazine about how there were people that did their scrapbooks strictly on the computer. After finding one site that was geared towards digital scrapbooking I jumped right in. My love for digital scrapbooking has continued and I've even started dabbling into some hybrid projects. With the love of scrapbooking came the love of getting the perfect photos for my scrapbook projects. Enter photography.... After starting with a point and shoot camera I soon decided that wasn't good enough and upgraded to a Nikon D70. My skills increased along with my equipment. After having issues with my photos and the camera itself I decided I wanted to switch to a Canon after playing a bit with some friends' Canon cameras while at a scrapbook retreat last October. Soon after returning home from that retreat I was the proud new owner of a Canon 5D. I LOVE my camera. I've learned so much over the last few years by way of photography and these days my scrapbooking hobby has been on hold in order to get this business, my passion, off it's feet. I hope you continue to join me on this long exciting journey of Oh Snap! Photography!!!
