My name is Deborah, and I'm the third oldest of 12 kids. I have to say... with the crazy hecticness that comes with our family life, I've learned to take note of the little things--and thankfully, I've been able to capture many of them in photos!

I love to capture "real moments" in life... real emotion. Every day holds something new, and every person has a different story--it's my goal to tell that story in pictures.

I LOVE to meet new people so feel free to drop me a line, send me Flickr mail, or visit my blog!

Nikon D300

Nikon D7000
