It's Time I Make My Introduction

Good Evening, well it is evening in the part of the world I am in.  I figured I would briefly tell you a little about myself, before I begin bombarding you with photo's and the like.  I could bore you with all the detail about where I am from and who I am, but to be honest that information is not so interesting.  What I will tell you in that I have 3 very simple goals in life.  The first one it to touch every continent before I die . The second is to do something that will make a difference and be remembered. The final one is to become one of the Worlds Best Photojournalist. Some may say these goals are a bit lofty, but that matter not to me.  I am fairly sure that all of them will happen, its just a matter of time.  

I have been taking pictures since I was 10 years old, and the passion and love I have for photography has only grown since then.  I started out shooting family and friends and the plants in my yard. As I grew older I developed a passion for telling the story of life one picture at a time.  What drew me to photojournalism was that fact that those images were the only ones that could stir up an emotion or make me cry just by looking at them.  Long after the news headlines fade, all those images still remain, forever etched into the brain of those who set eyes on them. 

I have the utmost respect for all those photographers both known and unknown who "tell" the story through images. Who help us to never forget particular times, places, moments, and faces. The job is not always glamorous, and is often under appreciate, but I can't think of any other job I would like to have.  To be able to travel the world and tell its story would be a dream come true for me.

So, with that being said,
This One Woman, with her One Camera, plans to tell the billions of stories of this One World.
