Wildflower Photography

My wife, Mariesa, and I love the outdoors and nature. It is a great place for building relationships, personal reflection, and most importantly connecting with the Creator of it all. During my high school ecology class, the instructor, Marty Miller, required us to memorize different species of birds, wildflowers, trees, wild edible plants, among other things. While we were learning about different species of wildflowers to identify them in the wild, the instructor assigned us a wildflower photography collection project. This began for me a passionate hobby of photographing as many Southeastern United States wildflower species as I can find. Thus, I owe my excitement for this hobby to Mr. Miller.

 

I thought I'd share a little of my passion with you. I'm by no means a professional when it comes to photography, but it is something I enjoy doing. Here is a small portion of my wildflower photography collection. I will continue to add to it over time.
