About Deb Phillips
Introducing Deb Phillips – The Photo Gal
I’m Deb Phillips – The Photo Gal — and I’m looking for adventure and inspiration in the small town of Lewisville, North Carolina!
I’m also a “homegrown” Lewisville gal who left town many years ago for college, grad school and work. Yet here I am again, right back where I started. Life is like that sometimes.
If you haven’t picked up on it yet, I love my little town. It’s like a living organism to me — with so much life beating in it. It’s also where my family — the Jennings family, associated with Lewisville Roller Mills — two generations before me, made a home and a new life for themselves. (To read more on my family’s local history and to see quite a few historical photos, be sure to visit my article titled Lewisville Roller Mills: One Family’s Story.)
I once felt that really living required moving to a big city, to another country, or to some exotic locale. But I now feel that right where I am is where life is.
Education and Professional Experience
Since I’ve not remained on one particular path in my education or career, I rather like the line from J. R. R. Tolkien’s The Lord of the Rings: “Not all those who wander are lost.” My education includes degrees and training in church ministries, photojournalism, journalism, and graphic design. My work experience has also varied — having worked for a tobacco company, Christian school, airline, printing company, and most recently working as a freelance graphic artist.
New Direction
With the launch of this website, I’ve moved into the blogosphere and into a more photography-centric phase of my career. In addition to maintaining this website and promoting community interaction within the blog, I’ll be focusing on several photographic areas: Event, Documentary, Children’s and Fine Art Photography.
A separate website focusing on my personal photography is currently in the works. I’ll let you know when it goes live, and will put a link to it from this site. Meanwhile, if you’re interested in learning more about my photography services, please visit my Services page on this website.
Thank You
I’m honored that you’ve stopped by. I hope you’ll visit often, and will even subscribe to the blog and join in the conversation.
Thank you for spending some time with me here at Lewisville Photos.
