Tarbell, Realtors La Quinta ~ La Quinta Photographer

March 17, 2011

If you live in the Southern California area you know the name Tarbell, Realtors. They are a team of realtors that strive for excellence, whether it is with their clients or in the training and knowledge of the market. Tarbell, Realtors is the largest family owned real estate company in California. If you have had the opportunity to work with them, you know how amazing they are. If you have not, I highly recommend them. About 9 months ago, we purchased our 1st home through an excellent agent at the Tarbell, Realtors’ La Quinta office. They were great! My husband was making the purchase while I was still living in Northern California. They walked him through the process step by step and helped him to feel at ease about such a huge purchase.

I was recently asked to photograph the realtors of the Tarbell La Quinta office. They are a great bunch and a ton of fun.

ABOUT Ann

My path here wasn't exactly straight, and I think that's what makes it worth telling.

I wasn't supposed to be a photographer. I was supposed to become a doctor. Neurobiology premed, on track, until my oldest son was diagnosed with epilepsy and life took a hard U-turn. I took a break and enrolled in photography classes I had always wanted to take but never could as a premed. On day two I knew. This was where I was supposed to be. Funny thing is, that analytical, detail-oriented part of me never left. It just shows up differently now, in the way I plan every session, read the light, and pay attention to the moments most people miss. I finished my degree in a year and a half, started my business the following October, and sixteen years later I still believe this is the gift God gave me to give to others. And I don't take that lightly.
