I got my first camera in 6th grade, and I was lost. I didn’t know how to work it, so it spent the better part of 2 years on my shelf. I went to MPS Meetups, as a model, but was always drawn to being on the other side of the camera. So in eighth grade, I brought it back out and started to learn about it - how to work it, and what makes a photo appealing. I went on photo shoots with my friends almost every weekend. I continued modeling and even had the opportunity to be apart of Orange County Fashion Week, where I’ll be modeling again this fall. I’m excited to grow my abilities in photography and expand my experience in modeling.
