He is the reason why I love photography as a hobby.  He has been the shutterbug in the family and loves film.  He has always had his camera at every family function, vacation or just because.  He photographs everything!  He doesn't know technical terms like DOF, composition or how to use fancy equipment, but he captures what is near and dear to him-memories.  That is why I take the photos I take.  I am here to share those memories. I am also here to hone in skills, learn from others, be inspired by others, be part of a community.  I'm still learning and trying. I sometimes wish that I could achieve the results of others on here, but everyone is differnt/unique. And maybe I don't always get it, but that's okay.

I'm here for me.

So here's to Jose!  

Thanks, Dad!
