Jesus is behind all I do as a photographer. I feel the Lord reveals Himself to me through His nature and feel this is a gift that allows me to see the raw beauty of creation through His eyes. He even allowed me to photograph two miracles at once. Go to my “About Judy” page to view this unique photograph.

My favorite subject to photograph is bears, but I also love to photograph all wildlife, flowers, and birds—especially hummingbirds:) I also created the Hummingbird Trail at the State Botanical Garden of Georgia.

I’ve given talks about hummingbirds, a talk about black bears, and various other presentations.

I live near Knoxville, Tennessee, and love photographing Tennessee’s wildlife and landscapes.

Angel Cub

“Angel Cub”

I love Cades Cove. One of my favorite shots is of this cub. The branch makes him look like he has a halo over his head.

Backstory: A group of us were standing outside our cars on the Cades Cove Loop Road when a man driving by told my friend there was a bear and her cubs in a tree at the road. We walked around the corner and found Charlotte and her cubs just as he said. She was super close, so we took some photos then backed down the steep hill to give her more room.

Charlotte is a beautiful bear with cinnamon coloring on her head and back. She is much different than the other mama bears.

What an amazing experience!! Isn’t he adorable?

Location: Cades Cove, Tennessee in the Great Smoky Mountains National Park
