Hey,
I'm TJ.
I have always been a creative person, the outlet sometimes changes but the passion never does. I enjoy doing a lot of different creative activities, I never imagined I would take to photography like I did because I always hated getting pictures taken of me!!!!
Maybe that is part of why I was drawn to this. Maybe I can make the people feel comfortable who are like me, those who shy away from any camera when they see it.

How I Started With Photography
My love and appreciation for photography started with an addiction to Photoshop. I enjoyed the challenge of making my own bad pictures look halfway decent. I loved the idea of creating an entirely new image by combining elements of many others.
Eventually I figured out that I do not have to correct my pictures as much if I just take the picture correctly in the first place!
I still enjoy random projects on Photoshop, like the picture above. A friend had a badly damaged, black and white photo of her great grandparents. I was able to colorize most of it and remove a large portion of the damage.
I still enjoy these type of challenges, so if you have a similar project, reach out to me! I just might be able to help!
I did one wedding and I was hooked!
Not only did I never think I would take to photography, I especially never thought I would enjoy shooting weddings like I do!
All it took was one, and I quickly realized that I enjoyed taking pictures and trying my best to capture the moments a couple never wants to forget. I typically like a more candid approach with very little staging or posing. I want to capture the moments as they happen, the way they happen. I will get a little involved if I see a certain setting or certain pose that would make a great picture but my goal is to be quiet, out of the way, yet always around and snapping pictures of whatever happens!
