Why I became a photographer

I come from a family that has always valued capturing life through a camera. My parents continued that tradition with my siblings and me, so from birth, almost every important moment of my life was photographed. Growing up surrounded by cameras, it felt natural that I would develop an interest in capturing moments myself.

In 2013, I purchased my first DSLR and photographed my first paid client for a graduation session. Since then, I’ve served as the photo editor for UH’s newspaper, worked with hundreds of clients on weddings, graduations, concerts, and more, and even had the opportunity to teach photography and editing to elementary and middle school students. Over time, I’ve also mentored other photographers, sharing what I’ve learned along the way.

Looking ahead, I’m excited to work with even more clients, capturing their memories, and documenting more of my own life. Of all the passions I’ve pursued, photography has become one of the most meaningful to me. I truly believe photographs are one of the most powerful art forms, and I’m proud to have chosen this path.
