I've always loved water. When I started college I wanted to be a marine biologist, but I quickly realized that I didn't enjoy college level science classes. I then decided to turn to art, which lead me to photography. I never considered photography as a career option, but as soon as I got into my first college photo class I knew it was what I wanted to do.
I've found that photographing is something that I have to do. I can't go very long without shooting, reading or thinking about photography. I'm not sure why exactly, but there is a drive within me to create through the medium of a photograph.
