A way of Life

My Photo scholarship 2010 entry

The place that I picked is the gym where I train Brazilian Jiu Jitsu (BJJ) at. I chose this as BJJ is now a very important of my life, it is so significant that I get all depressed if I don't go to the gym and train for at least an hour. BJJ has helped me improve my lifestyle, it helped me quit smoking, because of it I started to set my diet right and best of all it shaped my body the way I wanted it toned. If I would describe what my passions are, it would be my Family, BJJ and Photography. I crave for knowledge and the satisfaction of discovering new things from other people or places, my curiosity motivates me to go out and try new things. I love to travel. I would say that I am a very serious self taught amateur photographer that would love to try out photography as a profession, but my biggest dilemma is where to focus my specialty on. I have tried doing seminars for glamour photography, done landscape and architecture photography and still I can't really pick an area I would want to focus on. I would say this though, I crave for the challenge of being able to get that natural emotion from a persons face when a certain event occurs.
With that said, one of the reasons why I would love to be an apprentice of Jason Edwards and experience being with a real professional. This opportunity I think will help me set my priorities straight as to where I should focus my efforts to go further in the photography industry.
