I can’t remember a time when photography wasn’t important to me.  Ever since I was very young, I wanted to preserve memories that I could look back on later.  Little snapshots of people, places and events that were important to me.  There are boxes of old negatives, albums of prints, and hard drives filled with digital files.  Many are reminders of times that will never occur again and people that are now angels in heaven.  Oh how I wish I could relive some of those days when a casual photo was taken that has now become a cherished possession.
