Hot Air Balloon Pilot and Photographer
Hi I'm Jenny
I have Master’s degree in Marine Biology which lead me to become a balloon pilot. Really, it did happen that way. You can read the details on the about page.
I’ve also been a photographer for as long as I can remember, I started with a 110 Instamatic for anyone who can remember what that is. I’m now firmly in the mirrorless camera world. I’ve picked up a few awards, got published is a few places and have exhibits in some cool galleries. I also have the privilege of judging photography competitions including the San Diego International Photo exhibition.
