It wasn't my intention to capture any of these moments for a portfolio. I don't consider myself a photographer. I am an artist in many ways, but never did I think that my love for photography would become a collection of sorts. Minus a few college courses, my understanding of the craft is minimal. However, there have been several inspirational people in my life who have over the years encouraged me to touch up some favorites and showcase them. I dedicate this sample to them. They know who they are.
