Ever since I was young, I have always found an interest in photography and design. When I was six, I remember my father had given me an old digital camera which I took everywhere I went. I would take pictures of everything I saw. That camera is what really started my drive for photography and design.
During my free time, I usually will either go with my sister and do a photoshoot or go on my laptop and work on one of my photos or projects in photoshop. I really enjoy being able to take a photograph and editing it to what I want it to look like. Photography gives me a way to express myself the way I want to.
The photographer who really inspires me is Ansel Adams. I really like his style and the techniques he used to create the beautiful photographs that are still popular to this day. One of my favorite quotes by him is “You don’t take a photograph, you make it.” - Ansel Adams. I hope as I grow as a photographer that I can incorporate the same techniques that he used in to my own photography.
When I go to take a photography, I usually have music playing in the background just for inspiration. A lot of my work is based off of what I am feeling at the moment. I just let everything come out when I’m doing photography. In the future I’d like to get a job in web design or with something with photoshop. Both things are stuff that I really enjoy.
