Denise’s passion for photography began when her grandmother shared captivating images from her travels to Egypt and Africa on safari. Evenings spent watching slideshows planted the seed, which blossomed 35 years later into a deep love for photography—especially travel photography—leading to the creation of Road Runner Photography Tours. Since 2013, Denise has been running photography workshops, helping others discover the art and joy of photography.
Denise has been recognized as one of the Top 200 Women Photographers Who Inspire by Nature Photo Guides. Her work has been featured in Extraordinary Vision (EV) Magazine and Breakthrough Photography’s Guide to Night Sky Photography. She is passionate about sharing her knowledge while introducing people to the stunning landscapes, diverse wildlife, and vibrant cultures around the world.
Denise has contributed multiple articles to the Fujifilm X/GFX USA website and was interviewed by Peggy Farren of Understanding Photography on Overcoming the Challenges of Street Photography.
