About
I started photography my sophmore year in high school. Using my dad's old Minolta camera, I shot many photos and developed them myself. After graduating highschool, I drifted away from photography for a bit and focused on my writing.
After finishing a screenplay, I begin to pick back up on photography using high end camera phones and my Canon Cybershot camera.
My passion for photography was soon strongly rekindled when I met my friend Kmo. Kmo began reteaching me what I had forgotten and encouraged me to get back into photography. For Christmas I got a Canon Digital Rebel XT and I have been putting it to good use.
Through Flickr, I hope to share my work with others as well as recieve multiple criticisms from a diverse group of photographers. Through this I hope to achieve my own signature style and find my path to explore in the field of photography.
I attend the University of La Verne as a Psychology student going for my MFT Liscense in Graduate school.
