A little more about myself: I'm 19 years old. I live in Robbins, North Carolina. I was home schooled up until I graduated high school in 2015. I've been interested in photography since I was around 12 years old. I would go out and take pictures on my little point and shoot camera, I loved it! As I got older, I decided to take some Christmas and birthday money I saved up and bought myself my first DSLR. A Nikon D3000. I taught myself from video tutorials and trial and error. I was getting by, but wanted to learn more!
I was mostly taking pictures of nature and wildlife until I decided to try taking photographs of a person. I was so nervous, but made it through and figured out that was something I wanted to keep doing. After the first couple of sessions, I started charging to make myself a little more money than I was making as a waitress.
When I graduated high school, I decided to go straight from that and come right into the photography program. I went out and got another Nikon camera, a D800 and some other equipment to get me through, quit my job as a waitress, and started college.
It has been the best decision of my life so far, and can't wait to see where it takes me.
