About Southern Exposure, LLC

"Know what the old masters did. Know how they composed their pictures, but do not fall into the conventions they established. These conventions were right for them, and they are wonderful. They made their language. You make yours. All the past can help you."

--Robert Henri

About Me:

Quirky, but stable. Serious, but fun. My natural inclination is to be into everything all the time as I am fluid & constantly moving. I love interacting with other naturalists, artists, musicians, geeks, and photographers as everyone has a story to share.

Why I look the way I do:

My heritage consist of
Native American & Portuguese

Why I like to take so many portraits?

I love that close up and personal feeling that you get with portraits. The closer, the better.

What makes me happy?

Sunshine on my shoulders of course...and Starbucks doesn't hurt either. Oh, lots of things make me happy...I am so easy to please. Life is great...busy, beautiful, and full of everyday surprises~
