I grew up in Dallas Texas where I found a love of photography at a very early age. My first camera was a Kodak Instamatic with the cube snap-on flash bulbs. My friend's Dad was a professional photographer and he started me out me with a semi-professional camera at around age 10. The first day I got it there was a big snow storm and I entered a photo contest put on by my favorite radio station. This was back in the 1970's. I don't think I ever sent in any photos, but after a full day of taking photos in the snow, I was hooked!
