About

Me with my dog Bentley

Thanks Dad for taking the pic!

Still a work in progress,  but here is some info

My history/interests:

I was born in Columbus, Ohio so I have lived in Ohio my whole life.  I graduated from Olentangy High school in 2005 for all you locals that are reading

I then continued on to college at THE Ohio State University ( yes, the THE is important!).  I graduated with a BSD in Interior Space Design in June 2009.

After college I left the Polaris area ( tear ) and moved out to the country ( yeah! ).  Now I live right on the edge of town that has a population of 300ish and have a field right next to me. I do miss all the grocery stores being 5 minutes away… now they are 25.. ek.

I started my business in 2007 while I was still in college and continued to work on the business while working on finishing my design major.

I have a slight obsession with Orange Juice

Orchids are my favorite flower .. hint.. hint..

I love the beach! My family and I always go to North Myrtle Beach every summer in July with another family from Indiana. We have been going for 11 or so years now – every summer… its great! As you can probably see from my blog I have been to the outer banks a couple of times as well and that place is slowly creeping up to be my next favorite beach area.  Here is a small list of some of the beaches I have visited:

North Myrtle Beach, SC

Myrtle Beach, SC

Virginia Beach, VA

Melbourne Beach, FL

Ocracoke Island, NC

Kitty Hawk/ Kill Devil Hills, NC

A beach in Alexandria, Egypt

Cocoa beach, Fl

Alum Creek Beach, OH – its right by my house what can I say!

Fairfield Beach, OH

Lake Erie

Besides the beach love I have – I also just love the outdoors and being around water. I have a kayak and I love to go kayaking during the summer. My favorite spots for that so far are Alum Creek, Rushcreek Lake and Buckeye Lake.  I have yet to do any other lakes or rivers so I am looking forward to doing more in the future.

I am a big fan of hiking to down around Old Man’s Cave in the Hocking Hills area.

I just got a puppy in July of 2010 – any tips on training would be lovely!

This was him in March of 2011

 

I may have acquired chicks in April of 2011… this should be interesting… anyone want eggs? Oh wait.. they won’t be ready till August… never mind  :)

 

 

My camera history:

I have always liked cameras – I had a little camera first that you just popped the film in and wow it worked haha. I never liked disposable camera’s to much unless it was for a homecoming/prom dance – then it was “totally cool” to have a disposable.  Then I remember asking my parents for christmas or my birthday for a camera where you actually have to load the film like theirs… and that is probably what started it. That camera lasted for awhile – then digital happened.. oooh the excitement! I was so proud of myself for finding THE perfect point and shoot camera that had the best megapixels, digital and optimum zoom for the best price.  It still works great – I use it when I am out with friends or small family/friend functions. I always bring it on vacations with me because well that just fits in my purse better!

Of course in there I played with some film SLR’s ( the big camera’s haha) and learned to do my own film development and learned how to work in a dark room.  I really do have a love for film – digital is amazing, but there is just something about film and working in the dark room that is great.  I would love to get back into working in the dark room again and making my own prints.

Back to my story – I then graduated to Digital SLR cameras.  I always knew I wanted to be a Nikon person – so my first DSLR was the Nikon D40X – cute camera, worked well for what I needed at the time.  I then went to the D300 – I fell in love with that camera almost immediately - It was gorgeous!  Then, finally, I have come to the D700.  It is an amazing camera and I love it to death.

I have come a long way from my little film camera that you just drop the film in and it magically loads the film all by itself.  It has been a fun little journey and one that I know will continue to keep growing as the camera technology improves over the coming years.

Thanks for reading!
