Take a Shot

When Tyra Toren first ducked behind a camera, it was to take pictures of her family and friends. Nowadays, even though she has completed several photography classes and opened a photography studio, Take a Shot, she hasn't strayed from her original subject matter. Her portfolio is full of colorful and black-and-white portraits of children, infants, families, and expecting mothers. Many of them are staged against her studio's backdrops, though she also opens her shutter for outdoor photo shoots.
