Mary was able to purchase her first serious camera using a gold coin her father gave her. She was immersed in art education throughout her life by her mother. The camera became Mary’s primary tool for self-expression.
Eight years ago, Mary combined her passions for photography and education. She leads photography workshops, photo tours, and gives inspirational presentations about her photographic journey. Mary has a diverse interest in photographic subjects.

Photography has introduced Mary to people she would have never met, taken her to places she would have never experienced, and adventures she never would have attempted. It transformed her life.
