ShutterByMe's photostream

CollectionsSetsGalleriesTagsPeopleMapArchivesFavoritesProfile

I’ve always had a camera in my hands as long as I can remember, but really got into it all after the kids all left home. I had more time to spend with it and learning Photoshop, so I guess you can say I'm self taught …

Although you will see portraits in my photostream being out in nature shooting landscapes and wildlife is my passion. I love being outdoors and love to travel…..which my husband Michael and I do a lot in our RV. We love going to different places and from those places I have shot some beautiful scenes. My favorite so far is out west. I have a great passion for the mountains in Colorado….Yellowstone National Park is the best place on earth……the southwest scenes in Arizona and Utah are pretty awesome too! Oh yeah I'm big on mini road trips. Always looking for something to point my camera at! Be sure and check out my FineArt Galleries on my website and you can also find my images for sale at

Stop by and check out my facebook page or My Blog to keep up with what I'm doing....would love to hear from you!

Bret Okc says:

"I just did a walk through of Lana's Photostream again. I had forgotten what a refreshing perspective she had.Not only do Lana's photos always seem so positive, they are bright and have a wonderful artistic flair. I enjoy her enthusiasm and passion for photography. I also like the way she participates in groups and brings out the best in others. A wonderful photographer, and a wonderful ambassador for photography."

"I have enjoyed Lana's work. The landscapes and wildlife photos are superb. I found ShutterByMe originally when doing a flickr search on other Oklahoma-based photo enthusiasts. What I found is a source for inspiration when I feel uninspired with my own photographic pursuits."

"I have been a ShutterByMe fan for quite some time now. Her eye for a picture is just fantastic. Everytime I see a bird picture of hers, I can't help but to fave it, because they are so good. If you are reading this and haven't check out her web page, you are missing out. Go there next for total enjoyment. She is a real Pro. It is also quite obvious that her husband Mike supports her hobby. Thank you Lana for making this site so enjoyable. Keep it up. I'll be waiting for the next capture."
