Photography is a part of my history. Long before I was ever around, my parents were professional photographers; they worked at photo studios at various JCPenney stores in Utah. So you could say my original love of photography came from osmosis more than anything; I was around it so much I couldn’t help it.

Though I was around photography from a young age, I didn’t catch the real bug for myself until high school. I had a 35 mm camera and took pictures of my friends all the time. Back then we were working only in film, so it was more unusual to take so many pictures. It still wasn’t anything I was planning on doing professionally though.

My career choice was to go into business and climb the corporate ladder, so I began college at Weber State University as a business management major. But I took one elective photography class, and was hooked. I had always liked taking pictures, but the second I was able to actually process the film and do the printing myself, I knew I could never go back. The dark room fascinated me; I loved being able to see the end result of my hard work. I had a photography professor who took an interest in me; he said I had a talent for photography and should pursue it.
