Although I like to say I’ve been taking pictures my entire life, I began taking portraits in March of 2015, when my two best friends and I in sixth grade went out in my backyard and took some pictures. It may have taken some time for me to realize it, but that was the beginning of my love for photography and the crazy journey it has taken me on. My favorite part of photography isn’t just taking pictures, though. It's the people I’ve been able to meet and the adventures I’ve been able to go on with these people. Every photo has a story to tell, and the creation of these stories is my favorite part of photography. ​
