many of you don't know this but my passion in life is photography!this next semester i'm going to be applying for the art major with an emph in photography and i'm so excited to be really just focused on my art!i was introduced to the photography world back in my junior year of high school. i had just transfered schools and was picking classes and i didn't want to do the theater thing like my fam anymore, i wanted to try something new so i chose to sign up for the photography class. and boy was that the best choice i have ever made!i had never taken photos, especially using film so it was a whole new exciting experience and i fell in love with it!i fell in love with film, the dark room, the people, and even the smell of the chemicals!haha this past semester i had to take a drawing class so i couldn't be in photo, so every time i had class i would walk by the photo lab just to smell the room haha weird i know but the dark room is my home away from home!first semester i would sometimes be in there from four in the afternoon until one in the morning, and sometimes even later!i love everything about photography, thinking of creative stories or concepts, choosing models, printing, editing, evvveryything!!! and i really hope to one day make it in the crazy photography industry!haha i love people, nature and still lifes are alright but people just draw me in, especially their eyes!fashion photography would have to be my favorite or just going down the street taking candid shots of people. but fashion is my favvvoriteeee!sometimes ill just go online and look up fashion photographers and just click a name and see what their stuff is like!today i was online and i discovered a man named Andrew Yee and his work was amazing!some of of my favorite photographers are Richard Avedon, Annie Leibovitz, and Mary Ellen Mark!hopefully one day i will be as good as these amazing photographers and make a name for myself in the industry:)
