When I walk around, there are always things that catch my eye. It’s usually colours, shapes, shadows, how the light falls in a certain way. That’s how I got into photography. I wanted to learn how to capture those things, moments. Learn how to do it in a visually interesting way. Because taking a photo of an interesting subject is one thing, but taking a captivating photo is something else. So I “borrowed” my dad’s dusty Nikon & started taking classes & workshops. Ten years and 3 cameras later, I’m still in love with the art.
I’m curious. Photographers, what made you start to photograph?
I’m a graphic designer and worked with a lot of stock photos in one of my roles. There were several other members on my team with photo backgrounds so I wanted to learn myself to understand the terminology and how higher-quality images are made. Also thought this would fill a hole in my skill set.
