Keaton Hudson https://journals.worldnomads.com/keaton_hudson/ Wed, 15 Apr 2026 20:54:49 GMT World Nomads Adventures My name is Keaton Hudson. I am 21 years old, and an aspiring photographer based on the West Coast of the United States. The act of creating is a force that drives me. I strive to create because I was first created, and to exercise this gift in any capacity is something I hope brings great joy to others, and certainly brings joy to me. My creative passions are consistently evolving, but when I first picked up a camera I was hooked. Photography is my life. I'm consistently viewing life through my lens - looking at compositions, light, angles, in a way that others don't. Never have I been content with a desk job, and would much rather find a way to make a living traveling. I've been told that teachability is a great strength of mine, as is flexibility and leadership. I think getting to work hand in hand with Jason Edwards in Greenland would not only be a dream come true but the learning experience of a life time. I have never had any formal training in photography, and to partner with Jason would be an invaluable opportunity to experience the technical mentorship I've been seeking. This would be a key step in the right direction toward launching a career in photojournalism. https://journals.worldnomads.com/keaton_hudson/photos/43497/Mozambique/Esprito Travel Mozambique keaton_hudson https://journals.worldnomads.com/keaton_hudson/photos/43497/Mozambique/Esprito#comments https://journals.worldnomads.com/keaton_hudson/photos/43497/Mozambique/Esprito Fri, 5 Jul 2013 08:52:00 GMT 0 Until college, I lived in a room with two brothers, shared everything, and had no television. From an early age creativity and a passionate curiosity about life were how I engaged the world. I was raised with the mindset that nothing comes easy - pursuing dreams takes work. I love people, their stories, and their worlds. Taking photographs became a way to interpret the world around me and share it with others. Travelling much at a young age, my eyes were exposed to vastly different worlds through my camera lens. In Sena, Mozambique, I was humbled working for two weeks with orphaned children afflicted AIDS. Two years later, studying abroad in Turkey I learned the value of giving back. As a part of a service project, I was blessed to spend time with the elderly of Istanbul, listening to their stories. Throughout both journeys, maintaining a blog taught me the value of self-motivation and forming productive habits. I hope to enable others to learn to see, and not just look. An opportunity like this would allow me to continue to learn and grow as a photographer, but more importantly, as a citizen of our globe, sharing with others the intricacies of this great dance that we call life. https://journals.worldnomads.com/keaton_hudson/photos/39500/Turkey/My-Scholarship-entry-A-place-I-have-visited Travel Turkey keaton_hudson https://journals.worldnomads.com/keaton_hudson/photos/39500/Turkey/My-Scholarship-entry-A-place-I-have-visited#comments https://journals.worldnomads.com/keaton_hudson/photos/39500/Turkey/My-Scholarship-entry-A-place-I-have-visited Mon, 14 Jan 2013 11:45:00 GMT 0
