I am a wife, mother to three (11, 9, 6), daughter, sister, friend, etc. Photography is 'ME' time and I love it! I mark all my photos TGTG which means To God The Glory. I feel like He guides my hand and eye in photography and I give Him all the glory for my photos. Johann Sebastian Bach marked all of his musical compositions in the same way and we are still listening to his beautiful works of art. :0)

Mother's Day 2008 I received my Canon Rebel XT as a gift from my husband and children and so began the obsession! Then, for Valentine's Day 2009, I got a Canon Rebel XSi. I LOVE IT!!!
I enjoy photographing anything and everything but I most enjoy photographing flowers, water droplets, babies, and children (but I do not fave photos of other peoples children). If you see a photo that you would like to use or print.....just contact me via Flickrmail and I will ,more than likely, be glad for you to use it. I would just like for you to ask my permission first ...... out of common courtesy. All my photos are copyright protected.....all rights reserved. I have been finding them all over the web which is a little disconcerting......so please ask!

Chasing Dreams Photography says:
" I remember the first time I viewed one of Angela's photographs. I was so impressed with the detail. As I went through Angela's photo stream it became clear to me how gifted Angela was at photography.
What has impressed me the most is her versatility. Angela can turn anything in to a piece of art.
Angela thank you for always inviting me to participate in your groups,for the sweet comments that you leave on my photo stream and for gracing us all with your beautiful photography.
You truly inspire me !!!! : )
Love, Colleen"21st July, 2009

"To begin, I don't know Angela very well, but I have been so grateful for all of her critique, criticism, and compliments. I know when I post a new picture, within a week or so she will have looked at it and told me what she thinks. I always love posting new photos because I know that I will get advice from Angela.
I have also learned so much from looking at her photostream. Nearly every photo she puts onto Flickr makes me think, "I want to do that" or "I want to try to do that" Even without knowing, she has taught me so much about photography.
Thank you, Angela!"18th June, 2009

"It is always an absolute delight to visit Angela's photostream. I really can't add anything that hasn't already been so wonderful said by her other contacts but I want to just say a few words about this lovely person.She has a special way of seeing magic,energy and color. Angela has a tender and loving view on the beauty of the world. This photographer is a true artist whose work comes clearly from the heart. Bravo and Thank You, to an amazing supportive friend that I feel fortunate to have found here on Flickr!"

"First, thank you, Angela, for your beautiful, artistic photography that you share with all of us here. I could say that a picture is worth a thousand words and let your photography speak for itself, but I have to add that your kind and gentle presence has been a wonderful thing to experience here at Flickr. I hope we meet in person some time."

Three Peanuts says:
"I am not sure how I found Angela's stream but I do know that ever since that first day...I have made it a point to come back every day to see what beautiful images she will post. I am in awe of the beautiful macros that she posts. I also love her gorgeous landscapes and "lake scapes." She photographs nature beautifully and simply. Angela is a very talented photographer!
What I also adore about Angela though is that she is such a supportive flickr friend. She always takes the time to leave meaningful comments. I love her groups too (pretty pinkisms and shades of yellow). Angela is a delight to know on Flickr and I wish I knew her in real life too because I think we'd be friends!!!"1st June, 2009

"The word that first comes to mind when I think of Angela is grace- she just has that sweet southern charm and way about her that is just impossible not to love- when it comes to photography, Angela's manages to capture that magical- fantasy like spirit in everything she shoots, whether it be landscape shots of all the wonderful places she gets to visit, a stunning water drop macro, and even her skill with layers and textures is growing by the minute- she is obviously a quick study ;-) She is also so kind and gracious when it comes to giving comments, lets not forget about all the fabulous groups that she has created for yours and my enjoyment, I mean Shades of Yellow Friday- It doesn't get any better than that! please make sure you take the time out to browse through her stream- you will be taken to a magic world where dreams come true and angels are a reality :-)"

"I am happy to come across Angela's stream and she became my first sweet and kind flickr friend =)
Angela's "Flickr Love" image of heart candy and bokeh caught my eyes and immediately fell in love with her stream of ladybird, humming bird, droplet, wonderful sunset, flower, bokeh.
The captured picture reflects her creativity side and love for God and her family.
THANK YOU for all the nice comments and being such a good friend *HUG*
I love your radiant smile =D
Keep smiling and shining, Angela!
Hope your stream and groups will grow in time =)
God Bless ^^"20th April, 2009

"I have met Angela through Flickr. She has been one of the primary individuals who have taken me by the hand and helped me get started with Flickr. Anytime I have had any questions regarding how to do something, she has taken time to go into great detail to explain things to me. She will never know how much it has meant to me to have her kindness and support. Macro photography is my favorite and Angela has an amazing ability to capture the most awesome pictures. I so enjoy viewing her photography. Thank you so much Angela for everything you have done for me and so many others. Because of all the help you have provided to me, I someday will be in a position to help someone else... and isn't that what it is all about??? :)"

"Angela is a phenomenal photographer. I truly enjoy her pictures. From breathtaking macros, to beautiful compositions, to fun, quirky pictures – she is so versatile! Angela is very detail-oriented, incredibly gifted and keen - and extremely skilled with her camera. She is also a wonderful person and a great Flickr mentor. It’s a privilege to be her friend on Flickr!

"Angela is such an amazing person, caring and generous, and you can really feel that in all of her photos. I think it really stands out every time I see her work, you feel the tenderness emanating from the pictures, from flowers to portraits, they're all filled with her special loving touch. You can't witness such generosity on everyone's pictures, but you can really feel it in her pictures, and that is an exceptional gift.
She is an extraordinary friend and I am really blessed to be counted as her friend too. Thank you Angela,
Hugs,
Isabelle xoxox"13th February, 2009

OneEyedJax says:
"Never before have I seen someone whose photography so closely mirrors their personality as I have with Angela. Both are filled with tenderness, grace and charm. Her love for nature and family is evident throughout her gallery. She has some of the best flower images I have ever seen, and she has simply mastered effective lighting and depth of field. I look so forward to her new posts because they always seem to have a calming effect - a kind of dreamy quality. And she is one of the kindest people I have ever met - on Flickr or otherwise . . . I have not known her for very long, but she has a way of making me feel like I've known her for years. She is just a sweetheart!
Angela, thank you for your friendship and for sharing your beautiful photography. You brighten my day in more ways than one. I am so blessed to have met you! :))
Luv,
Jacki"30th January, 2009

"Angela is such a wonderfully talented, kind person! I feel so lucky to have developed such a great friendship with her here on Flickr. I look forward to every photo she posts, and I enjoy it when Angela shares her creative ideas and inspiration. Spend a little time looking at her photos and not only will you love them, you'll see what a thoughtful, creative, happy person she is. I remember initially finding Angela through her Explore photos, and I know, there will be many more of those to come. You are truly lucky if you've found Angela! She is as nice as she is a great photographer. Oh, and my favorite part is we share a Southern heritage."
