Can you introduce yourself and talk about how you got into photography?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I am a conscious creator, wellness advocate and obsessed with Quantum Physics. I believe our creativity and authentic power come from our souls, and our quest is to find alignment to our true self so we can realize our full potential and contribute to the world. Photography is part of my creative expression; I love capturing children portraiture because their mind and connection to self and nature intrigue me.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Q2. Where did you study photography?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I am self-taught.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Q3. Do you remember your first shot? What was it?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Yes, the first shot that changed everything was captured in 2009, which was my daughter Nyah&#8217;s portraits! She was 6 months old at the time and I had received a Nikon D80 DSLR as a gift from my partner a few months earlier. I had been using the auto function to capture her images, then one random day we were by a big window with beautiful light streaming through the sheer curtain. I took a series of shots but the auto flash didn&#8217;t fire. I noticed the difference in the lighting from the images and was super intrigued by it. This started my interest in learning the technical aspect of photography and I hadn&#8217;t looked back since.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Q4. What equipment do you use?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I am using Nikon D800 and mostly shoot with Tamron 70-200mm f\/2.8 lens when I am outdoor. I also have a Nikkor 24-70mm f\/2.8 lens and a Nikkor 50mm f\/1.8. I love to keep my gear simple and challenge myself to shoot with one lens so I can get more creative.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Q5. What do you hope to achieve?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I love to create beautiful fine art of children and teen portraiture to showcase their soul connection, beauty and authenticity. My goal is to continue to hone my craft and create legacy images that convey stories so they can become heirloom pieces.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Victory belongs to all species.
