Do You Love Taking Pictures? How To Turn Your Hobby Into Cash.
I’ve loved taking pictures since I was a kid. Everywhere I’d go, a camera always came along too. Until a couple of years ago I never thought about actually making money from them. It was just something I enjoyed doing.

Alone Under the Stars
There is an inexplicable feeling of being somewhere alone. The absence of alternative human presence almost forces a person to become completely immersed in place itself. Something I have found is that every place has a very distinct feeling that is almost always entirely unique. This place, tucked away in the vast expanse of the California Desert, produces a feeling of remote and off grid lonesomeness that is hard to replicate.

Immortalizing the Good, the Bad and the Ugly
The long months of confinement most of us have lived since the pandemic outbreak sure had their ups and downs for me and for a lot of people, I can imagine. Keeping our sanity in a world going sick and mad is quite the challenge, especially since every window we open on society, like social media and television for a start, alienates us a bit more every day by reminding us of the crises going on all around the globe. We need distractions now more than ever before. In my case, I discovered a new passion in photography. Slowing down the pace of my daily life made me realize all the artistic, poetic potential of my surroundings. I had never truly taken the time before to think about the fact that every glimpse of reality can carry a message and convey an emotion. Art is everywhere for those who look for it and meanings are subjective, personal. There lies the true power of photography. Every picture, every moment can tell the story we want it to tell. Everything is a matter of perspective. I find this idea infinitely inspiring.

Story Through the Lens
[Foreword: this is an article I wrote in my senior year of high school. The advice is solid, but the images really aren't, so I look back with a heaping measure of irony and invite you to have a good laugh with me. Do as I said - not as I did!]

The Photographer's Perspective
Imagine we’re taking a stroll with our cameras and pass a construction site. Typically, photographers aren’t interested in construction, but this particular build catches our eye because of a certain photogenic object in the middle of all the silent machines and piles of dirt: a rusty old truck. It’s adorable. Its surroundings are anything but adorable. Weeds and even turkeys have overtaken the field, and a few dumpsters further obstruct the view. Whichever way we shoot, it seems we’ll run into something ugly.

We all know that most common and the most used image format Is JPEG. We see it everywhere, whether you click a photo in a camera or in a smartphone. The image always comes up as jpeg, unless you tweak the settings.

Mistakes Beginner Filmmakers (and Photographers) Make...#4
Lighting for video takes some skill. It’s not an easy task. It took me a while to figure out what looks right, what looks natural, and what the heck I actually wanted when I was given a script or wrote my own script with specific settings.

Fundamentals of Photography
We are creatures driven by an impulse to try something new. While some individuals strive to change their routines by practicing a new habit, many others step outside their comfort zones to learn something new. In my case, photography is the result of that impulse to try something new. After some years of emerging myself in photography, I now see it as a unique art form where perspective, scenery, composition, lighting, and expression allow for a myriad of interpretations of the world.
