Photography

I have always been a creative person and I love art and I am always looking for something new and fun to do. I found photography through my dad and feel in love. I started photography only a few years ago but I have learned a lot through my dad and school. I love taking pictures of really anything. Nature really sticks out to me because no one physically made them and how things fall that’s how it rolls. People say pictures say a thousand words and they truly are. When you try to explain a place to someone you really can’t because they will imagine things their way instead of the real way

My dad has really taught me a lot. It helps that we have a darkroom in our basement, so I can really get hands on it. My dad has a photography business I help him with that, and I get even more hands on with photos. I Learn from my mistakes and just goofing around too. Photography isn't really complicated it is just hard to remember all of "rules" like aperture, speed settings, filters and things like that. Once you know what you are doing the creative juices flow without issues.

Photography isn't for everyone because it is way different form just taking a picture. Most people think, oh I take pictures so I would be great in photography, maybe you would be but just taking pictures of you and you friends isn't considered real photography, but it still is a kind of photography. All pictures are considered photography,just some more complex than others. Some people don't really understand the focus and eye you need for it, I guess I am lucky that I have that eye.

I have posted my pictures on Facebook, hung pictures up at my old school and here, and my family has also seen my work and people seem to like it. People are saying how great it is, and beautiful, I really appreciate the complements but I really don't know how to respond but thank you. I don't to be rude and say I know, or not respond. It's something I really can't explain because I do love the complements but it is just kind of awkward.

Photography is something I want to do for the rest of my life. My dream is to become a famous photographer like Ansel Adams, and for people all around the world or really any where to see and enjoy my work. I would also love to make a book with my dad with our pictures in it. I know these are BIG dreams but you never what will happen in your life. I dream big so I live life to its fullest.
