Life In Cambodia

My Scholarship entry - Life In Cambodia

Cambodia | Tuesday, January 8, 2013 | 5 photos

I am one person who believes in dreams and will never give up. As a child I wanted to be a world famous photographer and I still do. Due to poverty, I never studied further beyond secondary school despite getting a scholarship from a university in UK. My family could not afford the airfare.

My passion has always been in motivating people. Photography has helped me do that over the years. I look at lives, cultures and the simple things each culture presents to me as being huge inspiration of the realities of living and how to keep learning to live in this one world we share.

My focus has always been on the people. I have often just let them tell me their stories as I see them through my lens. Truths often appear if one is patient and is willing to see with an open heart.

My goal is to tell more stories through my images. To inspire people to remember our personal hardships are not the worst and there are always opportunities out there to learn and to keep learning as long as we are alive. We just need to embrace those opportunities presented to us.

Ultimately, I would love to be known for the stories I have to tell. I still believe I can achieve that.

Thank you.
