What is your favorite style of photography?
A: I prefer images with people in them. It doesn’t have to be a close up or of a model either. I find people more interesting than vast landscapes.
What made you take the first step to become a photographer?
A:Â I actually got into photography due to a breakup. We dated for almost five years and I felt miserable for many weeks afterwards. I needed something to occupy my mind.
What helped you learn photo editing the best and do you have any advice for new photographers struggling with that aspect of photography?
A: Google is your best friend. Anything I got stuck on or wanted to learn I would usually be able to find on Google or YouTube.
Describe your editing style/technique.
A: I prefer my images to be low contrast and desaturated. I always thought that was how I edited but just a few weeks ago I learned it’s this way because of my lenses.

Who are your top three artists right now? (music)
A: The Weeknd, Autre Ne Veut, and Anderson Paak.
Where do you want to be with photography in one year?
A:Â I think the goal for me is to not know where I’ll be with it in a year but hopefully traveling everywhere.
