My name is Tara, and I was born and raised in Washington State.
In 2010 I married Bill (bmac62) and retired ... two of the best choices I ever made! :)
In March, 2013, we sold our home in Washington and went on the road in our RV full time. What a blast! There is so much world out there to see!
After traveling around the West for a few years, we got rid of the motorhome and are now spending winters in deep-south Texas and summers in Washington State. Spring and fall finds us visiting whichever place strikes our fancy at the time!
If I’m missing from Renderosity from time to time, I’m busy having fun elsewhere.
Thanks for your interest in my work, and for stopping by to learn more about me!

A pretty young woman. What's that they say about 'If you love something let it go'? Well, Mazel Tov on their upcoming wedding and here's to second chances. I look forward to seeing your chronicle of the happy event.

I'd never heard the term "color pop" but now I have. I take it it means allowing color for one part of an image, but leaving the rest black and white...Well, whatever it means, Alana's pinkish red is beautiful against all that black and white. And she looks into the light beyond the frame (sweet capture). The background is clear enough to be fascinating, and soft enough to be a "background". You captured a sweetness in her, and a slight inquisitive look. A sweet, touching image, and the grain actually brings out the color in her face---something that might not be as visible if this were darker. A very sweet portrait, Tara, and I'm happy you have yet another marriage in your family. And yeah, with Mark, I look forward to any family affairs you choose to photograph...

You always have a knack for making people look their best, Tara. And I think the 'color pop' you did really enhances the image, and rivets the eyes to your main subject. Nicely done!

Another stunning family portrait. Know you've worked your fingers to the bone to reduce the yellows in the shots from Joni's shower for Alana. What? You got something against yellow? :-)
