This is what I do when I should be otherwise constructively occupied.

I suppose I'd better confess that I'm slow to post right now because I'm studying for the bar. But, it helps me to stay sane and balanced and that's worth something, right?

I work with victims and survivors of domestic violence, specifically in immigration under the federal Violence Against Women Act. It's not low-stress or conducive to good mental health, but photography gives me an outlet and a good excuse to get far, far away from it all on the weekends.

I'm slowly learning my way around my camera. I got my first SLR when I was 10, and my first DSLR (a D200) almost a year ago.

Anything that's turned out well is the result of good fortune unmitigated by any skill.

I'd love to hear your constructive criticism--I really want to learn.
