WHAT PEOPLE ARE SAYING
JOIN A WALK
Georgetown Lake
Come walk with me at the beautiful Georgetown Lake for a refreshing morning of faith and photography. We’ll begin with a meaningful devotion to quiet the noise and reconnect with purpose.
Afterward, our focus turns to mastering your camera’s stabilization and autofocus techniques—two essentials for capturing sharp, intentional images in nature.
You’ll learn how to handhold your camera for slow shutter speeds, when to use a tripod or monopod, and how to switch between autofocus modes for still subjects, wildlife in motion, and tricky lighting.
You'll leave with practical tools to shoot with more clarity and control.
Birmingham Nature Fest - Bird Photography Course
I invite you to join me for an immersive bird photography course at the Birmingham Nature Festival, a four-day outdoor celebration of Alabama’s natural world, hosted by the Alabama Wildlife Center at the breathtaking Oak Mountain State Park.
During this hands-on session, you’ll learn how to photograph birds in their natural environment—capturing everything from quiet perches to dynamic moments in flight. We’ll explore how to read bird behavior, harness natural light, and apply key photography techniques to create images that are sharp, soulful, and full of life.
Whether you're just starting out or ready to refine your craft, this experience will leave you with both practical skills and a renewed connection to nature.
Greenway Trailhead
Join me at the Riverchase Greenway Trailhead for a reflective Walk By Faith nature walk, beginning with a devotion to set our hearts on what truly matters.
Afterward, we’ll dive into a practical photography lesson on using histograms to better understand exposure.
You’ll learn how to read your camera’s histogram to avoid blown highlights or deep shadows, and how to apply the “Expose to the Right” (ETTR) technique to capture more detail—without losing the light.
This walk is perfect for those ready to move beyond guessing and start shooting with intention.
Chace Lake
Join me for a peaceful morning at Chace Lake as we pause for a soul-filling devotion to center our hearts, followed by a hands-on photography lesson focused on understanding the Exposure Triangle—the foundation of every great photo.
I'll break down how aperture, shutter speed, and ISO work together to shape light, control depth, and freeze (or embrace) motion.
This lesson will help you gain clarity and confidence in capturing the beauty around you, on purpose and with intention.
No experience needed. Just bring your camera, your heart, and your curiosity.
Avondale Park
Join me on Saturday, June 14th, 2025 at 8:00 AM for the next Walk By Faith Nature Walk at the historic and scenic Avondale Park in Birmingham, Alabama.
Nestled in the heart of the city, Avondale Park is a true urban oasis—featuring peaceful walking trails, a tranquil lake, mature trees, open green spaces, and a habitat rich with birds and wildlife. It’s the perfect setting to slow down, breathe deep, and reconnect with both nature and your spirit.
We’ll begin the morning with a brief prayer to center ourselves and set the tone for the walk. Our focus will be on finding peace and beauty in the present moment, just like the birds we’ll encounter along the way.
I’ll also be sharing a short, practical lesson on how to create more intentional and visually striking photo compositions. You’ll learn how to better capture the light, movement, and angles of what you see.
This event is about walking with purpose, learning something new, and connecting with a like-minded community in one of Birmingham’s most beloved parks.
Come as you are—ready to reflect, explore, and witness God’s beauty all around you.
