Probably anyone who has spent more than five minutes with me will notice that I like to take pictures- a lot of them. I probably have 2000 on facebook, and even more on my camera and computer that I haven't posted. Photography to me is an art form, and I love capturing moments and memories to be looked at and remembered later. It's a way I make a footprint in the world, for people to enjoy and notice. Pictures can go farther out in the world than I can, and I like to think where they might be going. People might also have noticed that there are quite a few pictures that I take of myself! It's not vanity, but like I said before, and art form, and I'm usually the only model I have for myself. It's also capturing little moments and expressions for later. My Dad was really into photography- I probably got some of those genes from him, but I also have another theory why photography interests me so much. As most younger children might have noticed, there are a lot more pictures of there older siblings than them. So, as the youngest child in my family, I think that I've made it my mission to take as many pictures as possible, so that there are plenty of everyone (including myself!). I want to do something with all these pictures I have, whether giving them to friends and family, or making them into something everyone can enjoy. I still don't know how I'm going to do this, so for now I'll just settle on filling up my memory cards- again and again and again.
