People have suggested that I make a website for my photos, so here we are! This will be a passion project, something that I will hopefully update every so often with new photos and pages. I make an effort to go out with my camera a few times a month so there should always be something worth posting.
I got into photography in late 2021. My mother recommended that I take a "for fun" class in college, a truly alien idea to me, and an introductory digital photography course was one of the only things that stood out to me in the catalogue. This first class would end up being surprisngly fun, and it got me out into the world doing something new. I took another more in depth class a year later and got to try out a lot more techniques and types of scenes that I usually would shy away from, like urban areas and action shots. I had tried my hand at the visual arts before with drawing and painting but those never really clicked, progress felt very slow and every attempt would inevitably lead to me giving up. Something about working with a camera instead of a pencil felt much more natural to me, as weird as that may sound.
One of my other interests unrelated to photography is computers. I built my own PC several years ago and have been gradually changing out parts as they either break or get old. Its not a Ship of Thesseus yet, but one day it might be. I would love to work with computers, whether that be on the hardware or software side of things. I just feel at home in front of a Windows machine.
