I am a SAHM to 3 peanuts with a passion for photography. I have used flickr as photo storage in the past but now I am here to learn and grow as a photographer. I am so encouraged and inspired here.

 

I got my first DSLR about 2 years ago when we adopted our youngest daughter from China. But I have only really tried to hone my skills within the last 6-12 months. I read everything I can on photography and take as many shots as I can.

 

I use a Nikon D-700 and my old D-80. I have a 50mm, 85mm (1.8's), 18-135 mm and a 24-70 mm 2.8

 

I try to keep my contact list on the small side so I can really keep up with everyone and comment on their streams. So, if I don't add you right away, please don't be offended. I update my list and add people whose work I really admire and who regularly visit and comment on my stream as well.

 

If you add me as a contact but don't have much on your stream, have weird photos or unavailable favorites, or if my stomach gives a little lurch, I will block you. I despise doing that but better safe than sorry.

Kim is one of the sweetest and most kind people I have ever had the pleasure of 'meeting'. She is my ONLY Flickr friend that I can actually say I have been blessed to talk with on the phone. I felt like I was talking to a close friend that I had known for years and years. Kim is such a gracious and beautiful soul and I am proud to be able to call her a friend. Kim's photos are outstanding and she does a fantastic job with textures and processing. All of her photos have such a wonderfully soft and dreamy feel to them. Her shots always give me a feeling of peace and have such a calming effect on me. I love each and every photo that she has uploaded. Kim thank you for all your help with PS but most of all.......thank you for being my friend. :0) You are wonderful! (Hope this doesn't embarrass you too much! ;0) )

I remember the first photo I ran across of Kim's They were white tulips & it may be because I have a hard time with light colors & these had such a pureness & delicate quality to them. That they really stood out to me, I than delved a bit deeper into her stream & her kids are about the same ages as mine & they are so adorable, we both share a joy of capturing our children doing their everyday activities. Since than I have enjoyed viewing Kim's stream, She has such a nice variety of photo's that she shares with us. Her warmth & caring comes through in her comments & it is always a pleasure to see she has left me a heartfelt comment, It means so much. Kim already is very talented & I look forward to see even more growth from her in the future. Thanks for being a wonderful Flickr Friend.

Kim is amazing... she has always inspired me in so many ways. She is so good at everything she does: mothering, cooking, interior design, marriage & family counseling, being a wonderful friend & fabulous wife, and a very talented photographer (and more). Her photography refects her personal style... simple yet very elegant. She has a unique way of making even the most simple things special and very beautiful. What I love most about her photography is how meaningful each photo is... her portraits, her florals, her 365 project, and even her photos taken during daily outings- each photo tells a story or records a memory so beautifully. And her technique is always spot on. Aside from her talent and skill, Kim is a sweet and very generous person. She has such a positive outlook and is always there with the perfect advice. I am so proud to call her my friend and continue to be amazed and inspired by her.
