Some Pixs!!!

It was a nice overcast morning so I thought I would take a couple of this years babies out for a little photoshoot! I realized this morning that I just plain love albinos. Some of you know some of you don't, but I lost my foot in a steel mill accident in 1997. I was ninteen years old when this happened. 12 surgeries & eighteen months later I was back on my feet. Three days after the accident I woke up not knowing exactly what had happend my family & friends around me! The first thing I did upon waking was puke my guts out the next thing I did was asked how my animals were doing! I kept mostly burms back then and a couple of boas. My mom brought me a bunch of Reptiles magazines to the hospital one of them was the issues that unveiled the albino boa! I will say I read that one issue a hundred times and told myself one day I will have one! I realized that dream in 2000 when I got my first albino and hets from my good buddy Robert Harmon. I worked that deal from a computer at the community college I was going to at the time didn't have my own. My girlfriend and I drove to Blytheville, Arkansas from Chattanooga Tn, about 550 miles and then back again in the same night. To make a long story a little bit shorter I knew that night what I wanted to do with my life and I truly feel blessed that I have built the business I have today. My career started with a picture in a magazine and a dream, thats all it took. I met God halfway and the rest is history! Look forward to seeing everyone in Daytona this year.

Enjoy the pix
