50 Things about me

  1. I started taking pictures in High School when I took a photography class. We had an assignment to take a photograph that depicted transportation and my photo was a close up image of one of my worn out sneakers. A pair of Air Jordan's actually. I didn't wind up wowing the teacher with my image, but that definitely was the point that started me taking pictures.
