Photography has always been a huge passion of mine. I started by mainly taking nature photos such as sunsets, flowers, landscapes, etc. but it was only just a hobby of mine at the time.

As I got older, I began venturing more into photography by getting my own camera, doing research, exploring other types and styles of photography and taking some of the photo classes here at Plattsburgh. I’ve expanded my capabilities and knowledge about photography so much over the past few years and I have the wonderful photo professors and TAs to thank for that.

I hope to continue learning and developing my photography skills well after graduation and to someday start my own photography business.
