Cambodia | Sunday, November 23, 2014 | 5 photos

I am Bella, nineteen years old and have just completed my first year doing a Bachelor of Photography at Photography Studies College in Melbourne. in 2015 I will be commencing my second year of the degree (the degree is three years). After which my ultimate career goal is to be a Travel Photographer, Photojournalist. I first went overseas when I was fifteen, without my parents, to Vietnam and Loas, I then lived in Cambodia for six months with my family when I was sixteen. Since then I have been back to all three countries and to Thailand and America. I have the travel bug. I have an urge to capture the world, with photographs. On every overseas adventure I have captured the lives of people living within the countries. But I feel my skills can be developed so much further, which is why I am currently studying photography. To have the opportunity to work along side a professional, not only who works in the field of photography, but whose passion is photojournalism and travel would be so eye opening. I truly believe that being able to see the world and observe how a Photojournalist sees the world would set me on the right path to my ultimate career goal as a travel photographer!
