"A yute from Cooreville Gardens with a camera"

I’ve always been drawn to powerful images. Growing up I could easily spend hours flipping through family photo albums or getting lost in the pages of National Geographic magazines my mother would randomly bring home. Photography, for me, was more than just pictures, it was a portal. A way to travel through time, connect with distant people, places, and see life from new perspectives.

In 2021, I bought my first "real camera", a Canon Rebel T8i, and that camera is still my main companion today. The learning curve has sometimes been challenging, with plenty of trials, start & stops, errors, and the occasional small victories along the way. But the journey of creating, failing, and evolving has been nothing short of fulfilling thus far.

Just keep shooting.
