How long have you been in the<br />
Field of Photography?<br />
I started taking photos around five<br />
years ago.<br />
What initially interested you into<br />
photography?<br />
I’ve always wanted to make art,<br />
but I’ve never been very good at<br />
traditional mediums. I have<br />
dabbled in painting and music<br />
and crocheting and just about<br />
every other creative endeavor<br />
you can imagine, and I have<br />
been hopeless at all of them.<br />
Photography was this window<br />
that finally<br />
allowed me to create some<br />
tangible, visual evidence of how I<br />
perceive things.<br />
What would you say is more<br />
important Good Knowledge/<br />
Good Equipment?<br />
Knowledge, undoubtedly. Some<br />
of my favourite photographs<br />
have been shot on disposable film<br />
and iPhones. Good<br />
composition and subject matter is<br />
Which photographer do you look<br />
up to and why?<br />
This is a really difficult thing to<br />
answer, because I’m so involved<br />
in so many different genres from<br />
so many different time periods. I<br />
think the most powerful thing any<br />
photograph can achieve is to<br />
grant viewers a perspective that<br />
challenges their perceptions,<br />
and Brandon Stanton of Humans<br />
of New York epitomises that. I<br />
admire him so much for his vision<br />
and compassion and ability to<br />
encompass the human<br />
condition.<br />
What genre of photography are<br />
you most interested in?<br />
I love photojournalism, and that<br />
comes in so many forms. It’s a<br />
mother holding her child’s dead<br />
body in a warzone, it’s lovers<br />
holding hands in the street, it’s<br />
the way a city looked fifty years<br />
ago, it’s anything that is contextual<br />
and tells a story. Those are<br />
the kinds of photos I love most to<br />
look at and dream of creating.
