My Scholarship entry - A 'place' I have visited

Kosovo | Monday, January 14, 2013 | flickr photos

My photography is the contribution of my world's view, recording and collecting significant moments in life of what I believe the public should find interesting and have opinions about. This in turn correlates with my own self growth and progression. My passion stems from meeting people of all cultures; immersing myself in others' ways of living; broadening my own ideas of life, creatively as well as philosophically; and diversifying my experiences. Self-satisfaction pushes me to photograph better, to show my strengths and to demolish personal limits. I aim to become a self-sustainable photojournalist with my creative documentary work and to primarily create a platform for debate and opinions, but currently lack honest on-the-spot critical analysis and mentoring. This opportunity would allow me to gain valuable experience specifically with someone I would love to follow in the footsteps of, while objectively looking at my work and building a story in the field rather than during the editing stages. Ideally, the outcome would be to find a transition from amateur to professional photographer, as I have a deep hunger for learning across all aspects of my photography.
