My love for photography began in late 2004, when I bought my first DSLR camera. In 2006 Artful Photography by Marlene was born in Travis County, Texas. Then in 2012, when I retired from my day job, I registered All About You Portraits in Bastrop County, Texas. During my time off from business I enjoy traveling and shooting fine art landscape photography. I also have a passion for helping animals in need, so I volunteer time every week taking pet photographs to help them get adopted from the local animal shelter.more
