OKLAHOMA PHOTOGRAPHER | Vintage Cameras

I spent a very cold afternoon the other day creating some beautiful images of my vintage camera collection. I'm in the process of ordering these as postcards and blank greeting cards. Just one for now. I'll unveil them all within a month or so, and announce it on my facebook fan page.

Postcards coming soon!

This is one of the projects I've been working on.
"Shadow and Light"

Postcards will be the first product available from this. Creating these diptychs and triptychs are more work than I first anticipated. Sometimes I will get a group of photos together and then as I work them on the template, I decide one doesn't work in the group, or the crop size doesn't please me. But this is just a teaser of the many that I've created from my photos I've shot over the past few years at chuckwagon cookouts, cattle drives and other western venues.

"Camp Gear"


"A little soap and powder"

I'd love to hear feedback and if you are interested in my western images and products, I'll add you to my mailing list. You can post anonymously, but I'd really love to hear if you like these.

Blueberry = beauty

Blueberries! I love them! Absolutely!


I can't say when I first discovered that I had a taste for them. Honestly, I have no idea! I can tell you about apples and peaches and blackberries - all from my summers in Sebastopol, California as a young girl. Especially blackberries and raspberries! My nephews and I, we were all pretty much the same age..long story, but I didn't come along until my mom was 50 and thus began my mom's 'second' group of children. I kind of fell in the middle of 'batch 1' and batch 2. Mom had this crazy idea to adopt triplets when I was 4.
But back to my story. My nephews, Jerry and Joey (Johnny was 'older' so of course, he didn't play our games). We'd sneak through the fence into the neighbor's backyard and eat blackberries and raspberries until we were delightfully full of dessert, then we'd head back and always got caught! I'm thinking now that the juice stains gave us away. Ummm....
Then years later, I enjoyed the delights of picking wild blackberries in Arkansas when I was pregnant with my first son.
But blueberries...I have no idea. I don't ever remember having them as a little girl. No, I really think it was after I got married. No matter, I love them and can eat a massive quantity in one day, just as I can with blackberries.
And everytime I buy them, I think, MUST take pictures first. But then I eat them. Finally I took some photos so I could make some beautiful cards and postcards from them. I've been seriously creating some wonderful images and products that I plan to offer up for sale.
And we all know that blueberries have great antioxidant value.
