I've been taking pictures since I was 9, when I got a Kodak Instamatic for Christmas (I actually miss those square flashcubes...) I've been known to use disposables. Just recently, however, what was an innocent pastime has bloomed into an obsession. (Now have the 20D to prove it.) I am constantly amazed by the depth of talent on this site; I learn something new everytime I come here.
I've been a professional dog walker for 6 years. Eventually, I would like to go pro... pet photography, of course. :) But for now it's just for fun.
(In a former life, I was a paralegal for the Dept. of Justice).
I have one dog of my own -- that would be Bandit. He has a page on Dogster, where you can get a description of his warped personality.

"Whenever I need a smile or a warm fuzzy (or feel the need to give one) I take a stroll thru Karen’s images. Her dog portraits are so endearing, so heartwarming and quite often hilarious. You can feel the love behind the lens. And as if the images weren’t enough she quite often has a touching or amusing story to accompany them.
I think you can tell a lot about a photographer by the images they capture and the way they view the world. That being said, Karen is one of the most fun, caring and interesting people in flickr-land!"23rd August, 2006
