I haven't been taking photos that long but I have admired photography and film for years. I started mainly because my mom got a camera too advanced for any of us to work. I was the one that had to learn how to work it. It was then I became the family photographer. I started playing around with it and then I sort of figured out how to make the camera do what I wanted for my pictures. I have not taken a class but after watching and learning from friends and mentors much better than I, I've started to develop a style of my own.
