Background

I've always been rather intrigued with photographs. Photos could alway's take me places that I could never go; and still today they do. Images hold such a powerful force in society today. Without them, could you possibly imagine a newspaper or magazine?

I began to really grow serious about photography my Junior year in high school. I had recieved my first camera for Christmas the year before, but had not really put much energy into it until then. I attended Asbury College in Wilmore, KY  during my first year of college where I served as photo editor of the school paper. Starting in the fall semester of 2008 I  began attending Kent State University where I am part of their photojournalism program. During the summer and while on breaks, I work as a part-time photographer for The Alliance Review, the local newspaper from my hometown of Alliance, Ohio. I really enjoy my time there and have graciously been given the opportunity to practice and advance my photography skills through my work for them.

The photos below and in the blog archive have been taken for various photo classes, The Alliance Review, The Asbury Collegian, and for my own enjoyment. I hope that you like them!

Natural Wonder

For those of you who didn't know, I have a slight admiration for nature, all this natural wonder which surrounds us. So, today I went on a little hike at a nature preserve not far from my house ran by Mount Union College. I go there from time to time either just to hike or to take pictures. Today I came back with a few good shots. Hope you like them. Have a wonderful day all!

Emily,
Great pictures. I am a nature lover also. I really love the way you looked up into the tree to get that shot.
