Hi! First, let me introduce myself. I'm Tyra Dickinson and I like to make art; all kinds. My passion is with photography. I reside and work in Southern Oregon. I started snapping photos 15 years ago in high school. I did it for an elective as most photographers start. Then after I graduated I realized that finding decent photos for home décor was expensive. There I got out my trusty 35 mm Minolta and went about shooting. I did this for all sorts of things but mainly landscapes. Then I ended up being asked to photograph senior photos, engagements, weddings even! I realized I enjoyed interacting with the people so much that I primarily stuck with portraiture.
Along my journey I have been able to branch out on local media, different websites and blogs, interact with other photographers. I have won awards, my work has been published and it all still feels like a dream! I love what I do so much and I love the people I get to interact with so very much. This is more of a relationship
