I saved up to purchase my first digital camera in middle school with the idea to start photography as a way to learn lighting a composition for filmmaking in the future. I ended up taking on professional work as an even photographer, media photographer, and fashion editorial/runway photographer by the time I was in high school. I soon started collecting and shooting with 35mm film cameras. Since then it has been incorporated across my work in other fields as well, and a meditative hobby in my spare time as well.
