About
Photos capture the moment and offer a lasting memory of special times. A sweet baby sleeping, child smelling a flower, a young soccer player, pets acting like the animals they really are, mom's open arms as her kids run into them, an elderly grandma surrounded by her family. Each are special.
Don't miss a chance for a photo - that moment will only happen once, but it will then be cherished forever.
Creative Reflections Photography made it's debut in the fall of 2010. For many years I have been intrigued by the art of photography, both video and still shot styles. I found the importance in having professional photos taken of my 2 children each month through their first year and then every year thereafter on their birthdays. It seems to be too frequent for the first year, but as I look back on those photos, my precious babies return in vivid memories.
As the children grew, sports became a huge part of our lives. As a mom on the sidelines, I still had my camera in hand to capture those special moments. That hobby turned into a wonderful keepsake for all the children on the team. Each season I compiled, edited and personalized DVD's for the kids, set to great sports-themed music. From this continuous project came encouragement from the parents for me to persue something more with photography.
Photography has become my passion. If you can see the beauty from an unusual angle and capture that, it is then that you feel you have given someone a new perspective and a chance to see something they may have otherwise missed.
