The Photographer
My photography started after the loss of my childhood dog. Realizing that I had only cellphone photos that were low quality and hardly printable, I was inspired to buy a camera and start my new hobby. Now, I strive to capture high quality, lifelong-lasting images.
"VIIIX Photography" originates from the birth years of my two heart dogs, Carly and Shirley, born in '07 (VII) and '09 (IX).
When not taking photos, I enjoy my own horse, Bambi. He is my first horse after dreaming of owning one for 25 years.
