For about a year now, I’ve been playing around with a semi-professional DSLR (a Nikon D7000), exploring photography and learning new ways to capture photographs each day. Photography has genuinely become my second passion, alongside my work. Every time I learn something new and get a great shot, I really enjoy it — and the positive feedback from friends and family makes it even better.
Below are some of my favorite shots. A full photography portfolio is coming to this website soon. Let me know your thoughts. You can also check out my previous iPhone photography post.
