TalkingWithTami:  How did you get into photography? I got into photography from painting. I was never suppose to take pictures. I was mainly taking pictures of my artwork. I worked at a radio station called v 103 in Atlanta, and I started taking pics on the side for extra money. Thats when I bought my first camera as well.

TalkingWithTami: Who was your first celebrity pic of? Lol, my first real big celebrity pic I took was of Fifty Cent in 2007! He came to the radio station and he was carrying around a Kanye West Teddy Bear. He was doggin out Kanye and that was my first pic, that was fun.

TalkingWithTami: When did the whole papparrazi thing start with you? I dont look at myself as a papparazzi type of photographer. I just thought I was taking pictures of things happening. I just thought of myself as a simple photographer. Then I went to Los Angeles and saw how they do it out there. In Atlanta there is no such thing as papparazzi here, that doesnt really exist. The celebs try to say Im that way but I dont think so.

TalkingWithTami: Name one person you would love to photograph? Well, it was Michael Jackson,R.I.P. but now I would probably say Bill Cosby,Lena Horne or Oprah. When I was younger I always wanted to meet them.

TalkingWithTami: Why do you have soo much beef with other photographers? Well a certain photographer/bloggger started to create an alliance which excluded people that didnt work for her. So it started with that situation. Then the altercation I had with ATL Pics, that incident would have never happened a year ago. I had no issues with him until after I stopped working with that certain photographer I mentioned earlier. Now its grown and he doesnt respect me. Its all about how much power you have in Atlanta lol.
