Hi, I’m Debbie — a nature and wildlife photographer with a twist!
Living in Northwest Florida, I know there’s so much more here than just the postcard-perfect beaches. Our inland rivers, marshes, and backroads hold their own kind of magic — home to herons, squirrels, dragonflies, and the kind of sunsets you never forget. My goal is to capture that essence of nature and share the beauty I see through my lens.
Travel is another part of my story. Whether it’s the quiet stillness of the Smoky Mountains or the lively rhythm of the Gulf Coast, I’m always looking for those unique moments that stop you in your tracks. Sometimes it’s a bold bird mid-flight, other times it’s a flower holding morning dew like diamonds. Big or small, I love finding beauty where others might pass it by.
For me, photography isn’t just about pretty pictures. It’s about storytelling, patience, and faith — a reminder that creation is full of surprises if we’re willing to slow down and notice.
Along with my photography, I share stories, reflections, and behind-the-scenes thoughts on my blog, Essence of Nature. It’s where I write about the adventures behind the images and the ways nature continues to inspire me.
