Objective:

My objective is to share my passion for photography and scrapbooking with others through working on design teams and showing my work in publications either in print or online. I especially love the opportunity to encourage, motivate and inspire others to scrapbook through being on design teams and being involved in online communities and blogs.

My scrapbooking style:

Given my engineering background, my style is usually very clean lined and classic with a touch of graphic or shabby sometimes thrown in. I can also be very journalistic at times if I have a big story to tell. I always want the focus to be on the photograph(s) and/or journaling, which I can easily do with a clean/classic style. Most of the product I use comes from kit clubs, so I am comfortable with working with a wide range of product that others have picked.
