I didn’t start photography because I loved cameras. I started because I was helping someone clean a studio.
Back then, the photographer had no extra help and asked me to assist cleaning, arranging, and preparing the space every day. At first, I declined. Later, I accepted.
One day, while I was working, I noticed a test picture of myself on the system. Out of curiosity, I tried editing it. It was simple, but the photographer saw it and praised my work. That moment changed everything for me.
I began learning more about editing, then gradually about taking pictures. What began as helping around the studio slowly turned into passion. From cleaning the studio, I eventually grew into managing it for three years. That journey taught me patience, growth, and an important lesson: sometimes love for something doesn’t come instantly it grows through attachment, consistency, and time.
Along the way, I’ve had the chance to photograph personalities like
@victoradere and
@verydarkblackman moments that remind me how far I’ve come.
Today, photography is more than a hobby. It’s how I survive, create, and tell stories. I’m a graduate still pushing forward, hoping to grow even more in this craft. Opportunities like this help creatives like me upgrade our tools and keep chasing the vision.
