I had the opportunity recently to photograph a young girl that touched my heart. Alex’s story is one of adversity, bravery, faith and hope. In this post, she shares her story of dealing with both Psoriatic Arthritis and P.O.T.S. (postural orthostatic tachycardia syndrome). Alex will also talk abo

Life with my closest friend changed about a year ago. He and I would eat lunch together nearly every day of the week. His office was close to mine, and we could easily meet at one of the local restaurants. Then the pandemic changed our plans. He started working from home along with much of the r

Occasionally, I enjoy taking the short trip on Highway 49 to Yazoo City, Mississippi. The downtown area of this town is interesting, to say the least. The main street provides a colorful array of buildings ideal for photography. I have also found the store owners in the downtown area to be some of
