KARIN HAWKINS, Journalism Graduate, New Mexico State University LIFE EXPERIENCES: Enjoying the adventure of my own horses (registered and otherwise) beginning in my teen years, through horse shows, gymkhanas and rodeos; serving as a past editor of Prorodeo Sports News; and doing freelance writing and photos for newspapers and western magazines, such as "Western Horseman" .............................................................................................................................................. ...I have a passion for horses, the West and cowboy life. I want not only to capture how people of the West look, but how they FEEL. It's something special, carried inside the heart... My hopeful aim is to give individuals and families photographs which are one-of-a-kind, unique to them and not "cookie-cutter" prints they'll see hanging on someone else's wall... ______________________________________________________________________________________________ GALLERIES: "Weddings" (a team effort with Kristen Peterson)..............................................................................MY CAMERA: Nikon http://adobeimages.smugmug.com/photos/735074796_7e7TA-Ti.jpg http://adobeimages.smugmug.com/Family/ 2009-12-24T03:24:01Z Copyright 2009, the copyright holder of each photograph.
