My name is Minda, and I can't wait to share my artwork, and maybe even create some with you! I am, first and foremost, a wife and mother. I am also a biologist, a Girl Scout leader, a former Cub Scout Leader, a mom taxi, a school volunteer, an avid reader, an artist of all mediums, a lover of all animals, and a passionate photographer.  With a biology degree from Grand Valley State University, I began taking pictures of the beautiful world around us, and the four legged animals in it. In time, I found that I loved capturing special moments in a family's story too. I continue to learn, grow, and love everyone I work with. I cannot wait to meet you, share with you, laugh with you, cry (happy tears) with you, and take part in preserving YOUR history.
