angiel — Sat, 12 Jan 2013 23:29:00 GMT

I've always had an interest in Art. I have travelled for 13 years photographing the world. Looking through a lens allows me to capture life as I see it. A moment in time, a place, a smile, a memory. I love photography as an art form, it allows me the freedom of expression. I am a visual arts teacher but would love to be a freelance photographer documenting the diverse world we live in. During my travels I spent time in orphanages and developed art workshops. I hope to contribute back to the community through photography, capturing both joy and adversity through hardship and raise awareness. I would like to have an exhibition to raise money for educating children. This opportunity will advance my technical skills in photography. The reward of working with a professional photographer such as Jason Edwards, is an amateur photographer's dream. I have no commitments, and have the freedom to travel. I'm always passionate in what I do, hard working, creative and ambitious. This scholarship is a once in a life time experience, a prestigious award that would be an honour to win. I believe it's not only the camera it is the person behind the lens.

National Geographic travel scholarship

angiel — Sat, 5 Nov 2011 17:58:00 GMT

Over the past 12 years I have traveled extensively throughout different parts of the globe touching many countries and hopefully enriching peoples lives as they have mine.

The most recent adventure was a 9 day tour of Bali. I have always liked to take the road less traveled and Bali always seemed a destination like the slogan “I’ve been to Bali too”. But like photography the experience you undertake is different for every individual. How I document my travel and capture the memories of that journey is expressed in a different light than any other. I believe sharing travel tales bridges understanding and learning of the lives of others.

I love photographing and experiencing the depth of a new culture, learning about their customs, the spiritual heritage of the people , music, tasting new cuisine and using my senses to absorb the place I‘m in, it triggers a feeling like looking at an old photograph.

Often I am asked my favorite destination, which is difficult to answer as every country has its own uniqueness. In 2008 I spent 5 months traveling West Africa, documenting it’s diverse culture. It was a very rewarding and challenging experience. I would love to have the opportunity to document another part of Africa.

I teach Art to students, their project is photographing humanity. Our aim is to raise money for the East Africa famine. Having a mentor to learn first hand the skills I need to capture quality images would be a dream come true. I would love to take my photography further, to be a national geographic photographer, or plan B to create my own series of inspirational images to be published. Even if you are not a traveler photography helps expand your horizons and embrace the diversity even in your own culture.
