Amber from Houston, TX (originally from Fresno)

[AmbiDawn]

Hey guys (and gals)! My name is Amber. I'm currently residing in Houston, TX but I'm from Fresno; born and raised! As a matter of fact I'll be moving back to the Fresno area within the next year.
Thanks Abel for getting this forum started up!

Hi Amber! Convenient that both TX and CA photoforums exist in your favor!

[AmbiDawn]

Hehe, Yeah. I was just talking to Abel about a month ago about wanting a forum to be started for California. I can't wait to move back! I miss the valley, the mountains, the coast, the lake... and the list goes on and on =)

[Snarfy]

Ok, I'll give you the mountains, the coast, the lakes... but how can you possibly miss this valley??

[AmbiDawn]

True, true...I think what I like most about the valley is being so close to all those things

[Snarfy]

haha, touche. within 2 hours of all the places you'd rather be.

[AmbiDawn]

HAHAHA! So true...so true. I skipped many classes at Fresno State to take road trips to San Diego or spend the day out at Hensley Lake.

hey there amber welcome aboard....

amber was the straw that broke the camel's back so to speak... she was very curious about getting one together and i gave her a bunch of pointers etc and i had thought about all of the other requests i had gotten recently as well and figured i'd go ahead and do it.

plus this way lisa and i can find a tonf of great locales to shoot when we're on our honey moon in san fran. who know maybe we can have a big group shoot one day while we're there!

[Snarfy]

Well then, I owe amber a big thanks! So cool.

[AmbiDawn]

Thanks Abel! When's the honeymoon?? (Congrats on your engagement)

[Nee7x7]

Hi Amber! Us Central Valley folks will look forward to having you back in our area!

Houston is pretty cool, tho...I lived in Dickinson, TX, just outside of Houston for one year when I was in High School (otherwise, I was born and raised in CA except for one other year we lived in Tulsa, OK).

We're so glad to have you here (me esp...another female photog, woohoo!!! There are just so darn few of us...LOL!) and a big thanks for putting the fire under Abel to start this site up. We owe you one!

I'm a day late and a dollar short (hmmm, story of my life), but HI! <waves yet another friendly hello from the Central Valley>. Welcome aboard, Amber!

Texas/Cali/Texas/Cali/Texas/Cali....heheh...

[Snarfy]

yeah the majority of my childhood (5-13) was spent in Texas also. Just outside of Lubbock.

Weird how many of us have lived in both states.

[AmbiDawn]

Renee, I agree, it is nice to see some lother female photogs on here!
Janeen, thanks for the warm welcome.

It's nice to meet you both!

[Janeen Sanders]
