I am a North Carolina native and have lived in WNC for over fifteen years. I draw my inspiration from animals, landscapes, and travel. I feel most at home in the outdoors and love to capture the beauty of life through nature photography. I named my business CamelliaBird Photography to represent the legacy of camellia bushes, over a hundred years old on my family’s farm and to honor my late brother, “Bird”, who shared my love of nature and animals.

I am also a singer, theatre director, composer/lyricist, and author. When I am not working, I am hanging out with my dogs.
