I sit and
wait for the right
shot when…
I'm photographing
an event, such as a
powwow or rodeo;
patience is needed to
capture the action at
the precise moment
that will yield that
killer image.

When I'm on the road, my favorite munchie is…
strawberry or vanilla sugar wafers.
My definition of beauty is… someone whose face and hands
bear the marks of a well-lived life, like my mom's.
