I take photographs in order to identify and understand the world around me. I love light, life, and people. I take photographs because I cannot deny my impulse to. There are so many different people doing different things in different places all of the time. I take photographs in order to record memories and moments in time. I don’t want to forget what I have seen and more importantly the people in my life. I take photographs because it makes me happy. I am able to express myself.
