The Big Picture: Green Bee??

My Philosophy

I believe that the art of photography (as well as all other arts) has a power. A power all its own, a power so great it can impact even the hardest or persons. But even more so, I believe photography is a way to communicate. With the way a picture can touch someone, no matter what language they speak, what they believe in, or even how young or old they may be. Photography is Gods gift, a gift that can (and should) be used to show His beauty and His design in this world. It is for that same reason I want to become a great photographer, so I can help the world see the big picture. Matthew 5:16 says:

"Let your light so shine before men, that they may see your good works, and glorify your Father which is in heaven."

That… That is why I want to make great photos. So I can say "God made that, look how amazing He is". And so when someone tells me how great I am, I can say "I have no talent except what He has given me". I want to bring glory and honor to His name through my work!

My work

Over the course of the '07-'08 school year I have been privileged enough to do event photography as well as my nature photography. I have shot many events for a local church, as well as events for the ND-20061, an AFJROTC Corps in Fargo, ND. I also had the opportunity to do a wedding shoot and a senior portrait session in the month of June '08. That is the extent of the "official/unofficial" work I have done since beginning my interest in photography. I hope that this year I will be able to do more events and expand my portfolio for my future career.
