It’s hard to pinpoint exactly when my love of photography began, but ever since I can remember I’ve had a camera in hand documenting life before it dances away. I’ve always been saddened by the concept that once an experience is over all that’s left is the memory, but then simultaneously filled with joy at the rush of emotions that can come back when you look at the photographs.
IT WASN’T UNTIL I GOT INTO A PHOTOGRAPHY CLASS MY SOPHOMORE YEAR OF HIGHSCHOOL THAT I REALIZED USING A CAMERA JUST CAME SO NATURAL TO ME AND NOT ONLY THAT, BUT I WAS ACTUALLY GOOD AT IT. A FIRE LIT INSIDE OF ME THAT I HAVEN’T BEEN ABLE TO PUT OUT SINCE. AT THE TIME, I KNEW PHOTOGRAPHY NEEDED A PERMANENT PLACE IN MY LIFE, BUT I WASN’T SURE HOW SO I THOUGHT “MAYBE ONE DAY,” AND INSTEAD FOLLOWED THE TRADITIONAL PATH, WENT OFF TO COLLEGE (GO VANDALS!), AND LET MY PASSION TAKE A BACKBURNER.
Heyo, professional third wheel over here
my why?
RIGHT AROUND THE TIME MOST PEOPLE WERE APPLYING FOR JOBS TO PUT THEIR DEGREES TO USE, I WAS DISCOVERING WEDDING PHOTOGRAPHY ACCOUNTS ON INSTAGRAM FOR THE FIRST TIME. I REMEMBER LOOKING AT OTHER CREATOR’S IMAGES AND I JUST KNEW– THAT IS EXACTLY WHAT I WAS MEANT TO DO. I HAD NEVER PHOTOGRAPHED A COUPLE AND HADN’T BEEN TO A WEDDING SINCE I WAS 10, BUT I WAS SO INSPIRED BY THE LOVE AND EMOTION YOU COULD CAPTURE BETWEEN PEOPLE IN LOVE. SO INSTEAD OF APPLYING FOR BIG CORPORATE BUSINESS JOBS, I DOVE HEAD FIRST INTO BUILDING THIS LITTLE BUSINESS AND NEVER LOOKED BACK. MY ROOMMATES MAY HAVE GOTTEN ME A GRADUATION CAKE THAT SAID “CONGRATS, YOU’RE UNEMPLOYED” BUT I HAD BIG DREAMS AND LITTLE DID THEY KNOW I WOULD BOOK MY FIRST WEDDINGS THAT FIRST SUMMER.
