As you may already know by now, if you’ve read my blog, I’ve been working with my company for about four years (this June will be four), and one of the best things I get to do is take pictures a couple times a week around town.
When I started my job in June 2007, I didn’t really know all the nuances and tricks of taking pictures, but as time has passed, I’ve basically self-taught myself and picked up a lot of beneficial information from my supervisor about the rule of thirds, auto focusing my shots and composition.
Now that I’ve become sort of a “pro” taking pictures, I’ve become more aware of what would make an interesting shot, have really tuned into my “inner being” and God’s beauty and have discovered that taking pictures really has helped me overcome some inner demons and obstacles I deal with because of my disability. When I am behind the camera, I can almost feel God’s presence with me and forget all about my struggles and my disability. When I’m in tune with God, His amazing beauty and the love He has for me, nothing matters but me, my camera and getting to spend a few precious hours with my Lord and Savior Jesus Christ.
This page will be an ongoing project, as I post pictures of people, places and things that make this world a wonderful, amazing, BEAUTIFUL place to live. Stay tuned and please, please let me know what you think about my pictures. I would absolutely love to know if there are pictures you especially like and if there are certain pictures you’d like me to try to take. Thanks!!

Love the Pics.. Really does make you see the world differently!!
Thank you Shauna. I love taking pictures and have gotten a lot better at framing my shots and deciding what would make a good one… I see the world a lot differently since I started taking pictures. And you know, it’s funny because before I started at my current job, I knew absolutely nothing about taking pictures. I have basically self-taught myself the past four years… God bless and much love.
That’s great that you have been able to learn on your own. I am also not one to take many pics.. and usually cant center anything.. but i really enjoy looking at peoples pics and see the depth of their views.. They speak to you in a way nothing else does.. Some of them make you feel peace and I love that!!
I must express my appreciation to this writer just for bailing me out of this type of circumstance. As a result of checking through the internet and obtaining views which were not pleasant, I figured my life was over. Living devoid of the approaches to the difficulties you have resolved as a result of this write-up is a serious case, as well as the ones that might have badly affected my career if I had not encountered your site. Your own personal mastery and kindness in maneuvering every aspect was tremendous. I’m not sure what I would’ve done if I hadn’t come upon such a stuff like this. I can also now relish my future. Thanks for your time so much for your specialized and effective guide. I will not be reluctant to propose your blog to anyone who should have care about this subject matter.

First off I want to say wonderful blog! I had a quick question that I’d like to ask if you don’t mind. I was interested to know how you center yourself and clear your mind prior to writing. I’ve had a difficult time clearing my thoughts in getting my ideas out. I truly do enjoy writing however it just seems like the first 10 to 15 minutes are generally lost simply just trying to figure out how to begin. Any recommendations or tips? Many thanks!
