My name is Dawson Bean and I am 19 yrs old. My life can really be summarized by Winston Churchill’s quote “We make a living by what we get, but we make a life by what we give.” My two biggest passions in life are traveling and helping out others. Over the past two years of my travels, I have truly been able to unify my love for traveling with my passion for helping others out and have maximized my stories and memories by documenting them with my skill in photography and journalism which grants me the opportunity to share my stories with people around the world in hopes of inspiring them to travel and change the world.
The experience of working with Jason Edwards is invaluable to say the least. I know that my photography skills are there, but I have much to work on. However, the best part about it is that I am young and full of energy and confidence because I know that with an experience like this, I can take my skills from being an amateur to being a pro in no time. I already have a lifestyle and long term plan that works along side with photography, all I need to do is to sharpen my skills and I am set to bring new life and perspective to the photography world!
