I have had a passion for photography since I was like 6 years old. I had a polaroid camera that I loved, and thought it was the most wonderful thing on this planet.
My daughter is 18 years old, and I had taken so many pictures of her, everyone has always told me to persuew this a career and not as a hobby, but I never had the place to do it, and did not want to pay rent on a place, and it go sour. So I bought me and my kids a house a few years ago, and then started buying stuff for my in home studio a year later.
I worked at Kraftmaid for 14 years, but however it is was time to put the steel toe boots away, and do what I am suppose to do. Take pictures :)
I had done drawings when i was young that people offered to buy, and I had aslo had done a number of oil paintings...I think it is just all about art and I love it all. My mothers side of the family I must thank for that my mother was a great artist as well.
The only regret I have, is that I did not start this when my parents were alive, I just would love to hear those words from my parents "Traci we are so proud of you, and what you have done on your own"
