Through The Thickets...
I remember being only a few years old as I'd sneak into my mother's art room and play with her Canon AE-1 Program. I grew up in an artistic family, and was luckily exposed to many wonderful things throughout life.
I've been taking photos for a long time, but only as a hobby and to document trips. It wasn't until a few years ago when I started submitting my work to State Fairs and online competitions that I realised I should really pursue getting better. I was winning ribbons in the fairs and making it to the finals in Canon's Project Imaginat10n. It was nice to see others enjoyed my photography, and it was surly a nice boost of confidence.
Fast forward to December 2012 when I received my very first DSLR: Canon EOS 7D. Since then, it's opened my eyes to so many new things.
I've had requests from people to purchase prints, and now here I am! I'm hoping with the support of admirers and buyers that I'll be able to continue building up my gear, go on epic photography trips, and just keep doing what I love.
