Picturesssss 2 months ago

When i was 10 or 11 people started to look my pictures i was taking and said i took, well really good pictures! I love to take pictures of really cool things, i put wet bluebarries in a a clear glass and had the sun shine on it. I like taking gorry pictures, flowers, people,just basically creative and interesting things. mI like taking beautiful naked pictures. My camera isn’t working, so i get annoyed when there’s a good shot and i can’t take it!

I can’t say photography is in my jeens this time, One of my uncles is an artist, (painting drawing) People say i am good at but it is’t my thing you know.



I actually had a lot of fun with my camera this summer... 2 months ago

taking some awesome pictures of a lightening storm and of an orange full moon. Figured out a fair amount with regards to aperture and shutter controls and lighting. I am very much looking forward to taking more photos.



Photo Passion 2 months ago

I never knew i wanted to be a photographer. I always thought taking pictures was just something i did kinda like sleeping and breathing. When i would show people my work they were always amazed and liked what i did. As i started college i came into my own and realized I WANTED TO BE A PHOTOGRAPHER! I did research and i have found a school i want to attend. I will be going there next year and i am so excited!



Lost Dream 4 months ago

Taking pictures was my favorite thing to do. I would take hundreds of pictures each year until I lost my zeal for it. I still love it and do it as much as I can but not as much as I would like to. There’s beauty everywhere in the world. This became more than a hobby in my teenage years. Everyone at church looked to me as the unofficial church photographer. Then all of a sudden, everyone else wanted to do it to. After a while, no one cared about my pictures and some would get angry when I took them so I stopped. I need to start doing it again for me. Taking pictures makes me happy and I should do what makes me happy. I am going to start working on it. I have at least 5 cameras just sitting around collecting dust. I’m going to do it! I’m going to start immediately!

I’m busy making my portfolio while I’m studying to be a social culture worker and hoping I can go to a art school afterwards.

slowly but surely 7 months ago

I think sometimes I just need to find inspiration. And I would like to be able to teach myself techniques, effects, and how to properly use a camera.
