About
Welcome to the Fetching Images website! We are
headquartered in Greenville, SC but provide
periodic service to Houston, TX. I love to travel,
so if you'd like me to come to your area, drop
me a line. There are so many fabulous
photography sites on the web, so I appreciate the
fact that you are spending some time here.
I hope you enjoy what you see and that you will check
back often for new content.
While I haven't always made a living as a photographer,
I feel that I have always been living as one. I asked for
and received my first camera at the age of 8, and I can
still recall the excitement of sending film off in those little
mailers and running to the mailbox every day looking for
my photos. Holding a camera gave me a very different
perspective on the world around me which quickly turned
into a passion to document that world.
And while I continue to photograph a variety of subjects,
I specialize in artistic imagery of pets utilizing natural
light. My goal is to create timeless images reflective of
each animal's unique personality. If you are
considering hiring me for your photography session,
please know that I love what I do and that I
collaborate very closely with my clients to reach the
desired results. I have degrees in Psychology and
Occupational Therapy, as well as years of experience
and training as a photographer. I have lived abroad
and traveled extensively both of which have fueled my
photographic desires as well as enabled me to work
with a variety of clientele.
Be sure to follow along on the Instagram, Facebook, and Twitter.
You'll find additional work in the online edition of Life + Dog Magazine.
Thanks again for visiting!
