ASIA, THE BEGINNING OF IT ALL

Well, I was looking through some photos again today, and I found this! I thought it would be a good opportunity to tell you all how I got into photography!

I never owed a camera in my life, except for a point and shoot film camera I had convinced my mother to buy for me when I was 8 at a garage sale. Lol, but that quickly began to collect dust on my shelf. I did take a photography course in grade 10, but it wasn't until after my first year at bible college that I decided to go on a missions trip, and for which I bought a dslr. This is truly how it all began. I travelled all through Asia with two friends, for four months. I used my camrea basically everyday.

Anyways, from there on in I was sold, I haven't let go of my camera since, I absolutely love it, and love blessing others through it.

Here is a photograph that my friend (Jordan Fretz) took of me while in Maui (stayed in Maui for a week before heading to Asia). We were on top of Haleakala (a volcano) while the sun set.......UNreal.
