I live to photograph, I photograph to live. My camera keeps me sane. My life is a work in progress. No telling what comes next.

Call me Shady. Everyone does. Except my Gramma. And you're not my Gramma.

I am co-author of the book Weird Texas
More of my work published in the book Weird U.S.
MORE of my work can be seen on my site LostDestinations.com

And you can check out an eclectic array of my self-images, if interested... you will find them right here, folks.

"Shady is a wonderful photographer. I love her abandoned places photos, and her self portraits are different. Not just the "I'm looking in the mirror with a camera." but different settings, like the Dover Mental Cage. She's a clever photographer, and a wonderful writer."

"I'm amazed at the quality and variety of the photos that she takes. She is definately one of the best photographers around, and her photo work speaks for itself.
I love the locations of these pictures, and how she is able to capture the moment for all to see.
Thank you!"

"I've known Shady on and off for years (hasn't everyone?) and I'm always happy when she's ON. Her pictures are incredible, not only the ones she takes of herself, but of her travels and surroundings. If you're reading this, you already know she's gorgeous, so get back to the photos already!

"You are not only a very talented girl but also very beautiful!! Your self portraits never cease to amaze me...

I love all your haunted findings and sometimes find myself lost in your stories.. My family just loves anything haunted & that was part of our reasoning for our Alcatraz visit.. We are also planning a visit next month to the Sarah Winchester Mystery House they have night tours when halloween comes around.. I'll be thinking of you on that visit..

Keep up what your doing because your pictures rock!! I look forward to what you'll come up with next..."
