When I first started this project, I did not see myself as artistic. However, through learning the basics of design I was able to become a more conscientious photographer and found I could capture my subjects in creative ways. I like to reflect nature’s beauty in my work, as well as experiment with different techniques like manipulating shutter speed. I have come to appreciate that the way individuals choose to frame their photos says a lot about the way they see the world, and I hope that my photographs communicate a little something about me to the people who view them.
