I am married with 2 great children ages 18 and 22. My son has really helped me out with taking pictures. He is great. My daughter has given me lots of opportunities to take pictures. She is wonderful.

I need to learn a lot about photography. I love to take pictures of lights and color. Many years ago (about 21) I had a Canon AE-1 program camera- actually I had 2 of them. I messed around with it a lot and then had children and didn't have the time. Now that my children (my son mostly) are into photography it is giving me the inspiration to start with it again.

Update

It seems like my profile was written ages ago. I hope I have learned a few things over the years. I now shoot more in the daytime instead of at night doing light painting.

And in 2014 I had the opportunity to share what I know about photography to an awesome group of people. I think they taught me as much as I taught them.

I am now sharing my knowledge with a second group of people. I look forward to seeing them grow as photographers.

She has been a big inspiration to me. We've worked together for nearly a year now trying to come up with creative ideas and simulating things we see around us. She has always been a big help when I thought up something she would sit down and chat with me about it. I think that she has grown a lot as a photographer over the past year. When we first started lighting painting she had no idea on how to set her settings on her camera and what to use to get a good shot. I think that from getting into the low light photography it's not only helped her with light painting but also knowing what to do in the day light and not being one of those people who just leaves their camera on program and lets the camera decide what to do. I don't think I could ask for someone better to go out and take photographs with.
