stoney nova photography gena netherwood photography Hi! My name is Gena. I have always had an interest and love for photography—all kinds! It isn't all about me. Who knows?

It didn't matter to me what type as it has always been my favorite medium. I met the man who would become my husband, and then moved my entire life to England. Being from Arizona, American, and having never had a passport until right before I was due to move... this was a big whirlwind change. 7 years later, we have two beautiful children together and my photography has taken a backseat. I need to

begin to 'exercise' myself more with photography and get out there again. But, most of all, I want to help others have something to hold onto, also. Becoming a stay at home mom has become my most recent much longed for adventure after many years of working within the healthcare field... which gives me the time with my children, and the time to start focusing on what I love—taking photos! Having children has indeed shifted my focus in what I continually want to preserve and capture. I have always gone back into the storage at my mother's house to look through piles of unsorted, disorganized photographs from my childhood. I was not the person who took the photos, but they do fill me with memories of that time, place, and part of my life. I like to capture the familiar of that particular moment in one's life. My children may not live in England forever, so my images of them capture this early part of their childhood. All around them is the environment that has helped form who they are in the earliest years of their lives. Whether they end up in America in their later childhood through to adulthood or stay somewhere in the United Kingdom, they can hopefully look through their mother's disorganized hypothetical future media storage solution of digital photographs (who knows where the future goes and what it will look like for holding onto our precious memories...) or perhaps, like me, dig through slightly dusty and disorganized photographic prints with creases in the corners from one too many house moves. I hope they are reminded of their surroundings, of their first home, of the start of their lives. And I hope I can help you capture these feelings, too.

Sometimes I take pictures of toys, too. 🙃
