First and foremost, I consider myself a writer. That's the one part of my identity I don't ever question. With a camera, I can write with a lens, rather than a pen. I like to show the world what I see, exactly how I see it.
How ironic that the same is said for mailmen as it is for writers; they are the nation's great observers. I've been a writer since 1996 and was a mail carrier from 2008-2014, and I am still always observing everyone and everything. I've been keeping a diary on a regular basis since 1997 and consider it the biggest project I've ever undertaken. On the photography side of things, I've been trying to do a photo-a-day on Instagram since January 1, 2012. I've missed a handful of days here and there, but who doesn't?
My instagram is more about what I see day to day, rather than art...so don't judge me too harshly!

I also have run an Etsy shop since 2008, and the shop's Instagram account has featured a "Button a Day" feature since March 20, 2015. I hope to turn "Button a Day" into a bigger project, along with my sea glass photos.
