In 2000 I begged my parents for months for a Polaroid 0.8 MP Digital camera, at a time when not many people had or could afford a digital camera. My parents finally gave in and I was hooked! I became the designated photographer amongst my friends and we would always get together for “photoshoots” at my house. The next year I joined the annual staff and simultaneously freelanced for the company who was responsible for sporting event photos as well as yearbook portraits.
In 2008 I bought my first DSLR and quickly plunged into digital SLR photography. The first month I had my camera I traveled to Seattle and Vancouver. To this day I am still quite pleased with my first shots (as I was still learning) and I even had a photo I took of the bay in Vancouver published. I have been happily learning, and snapping away ever since.
