photography

I first got into photography during my high school years; i started by modeling in some shoots and dacing. i eventually got my own personal camera hoping to create dance videos, but instead i leaned more towards capturing while behind the camera rather than in front. My photography is used as extension of my interests and passions. usually when creating I engage with things out of the norm or that bring vibrancy, some sort of distinct trait that stands out within the subject. i like live elements, I cater towards color and depth when it comes to shooting. i enjoy shooting portraits, landscape, fashion-related, architectural and fine art photography.
