I'm a new member

Hi, my name is Laura. I am a new member as of just now. I am from Mississippi, I am married and I have six children. 2 girls and 4 boys. My 16 year old son drowned 2 years ago, this has been devastating for me, but with the LORD's help and my family, I am living day to day. I also have Parkinson's Disease but with my medication, no one knows I have it. I started taking pictures about 3 years ago and fell in love with it. I was working at a hospice house maintaining their website, looking for something to put on it, so i took some pics of the flower gardens. They came out so good, it was a boost to get me going. Now I am selling some photos, hoping to sell more. I do senior portraits, publicity photos for one of our state senators, campaign photos for several candidates local and state, family portratis. I am looking to expand my business. That's me.

Welcome to the site. You have a lot going on, but it appears that your photography is therapeutic and allows you to cope. Good for you. Hang in there and welcome, again.

Welcome to Nikonites, Laura. You sound like you have a busy life! Again, welcome to the site.....and have fun!
