I am starting my twenty-ninth year as a Senior Editor and Retouch Artist at Birmingham's largest Photography Lab and Studio. I am photography partners and life partners with my best friend and fellow Mintie, Lee Dunnie. I received my BS from the University of Montevallo and studied Photography at the University of Alabama at Birmingham. I enjoy the creative opportunities Minted provides to combine my love of photography, design and watercolor.
