I'm a 25 year old EMT/Firefighter who is currently in Paramedic school. I work in a mid-sized Emergency room about 25 miles northeast of Indianapolis.

I spent 6 years in the Marine Corps Reserve and did one tour of duty in Iraq. I've done everything from washing dishes to working for a congressman to shooting machine guns.

I got my start in photography in high school while taking pictures for the year book. Nothing too technical, but I did learn the basics.

At one point I was the "unofficial photographer" for my Marine Unit.

At that time I was using an Olympus IS-500 SLR and a cheap digital camera I bought from the Iraqi locals. When I find it I'll throw the brand name up here.

Currently I use a Canon PowerShot A560 and hope to some day have the time and money to dedicate to more serious photography.
