I caught the camera bug early on, when my parents gave me a Brownie Starlet camera as a gift for my seventh birthday. My first published photographs were taken to illustrate my work as a newspaper reporter and freelance writer. Later, as I followed a career path that led to ordained ministry in the Episcopal Church, photography became a spiritual discipline for me. I’m especially interested in the way light can be a metaphor for grace or spiritual presence that breaks in and illuminates, transforming the ordinary to be extraordinary.
