Part time photographer
My photography journey started with my Husband insisting on buying himself a camera. I was not convinced that he would make the most out of this expensive camera. I was pleasantly surprised by his passion for photography. He just simply had an amazing natural talent!
It was not long after, that my husbands passion-bug caught me. From not being interested in taking photos, to having my own camera and equipment.
My journey as a photographer has started. I intend on making every opportunity available for me to grow and develop my skills. I believe my genre will reveal itself.
