Where passion leads success follows

I always had a passion and appreciation for art. When I was a child, I was always creating something. I wrote poetry, enjoyed drawing and made music. I always engulfed myself in artful hobbies. I always appreciated photography but it wasn’t until I was visiting my cousins in Europe where I was first introduced to it. My cousins had a knack for photography. They showed me the basic functions of a DSLR camera along with fundamental principles: exposure, shutter speed and composition. A passion developed quickly. I arrived from my vacation with a newfound hobby and an obsessive desire to master it. I spent countless days and nights photographing anything that was inspiring. I read photography books and magazines, watched hundreds of tutorials online and photographed close friends and family. As the demand for my photography grew so did my appreciation and my love for photography. I am privileged to have been professionally photographing ever since.
