Room with a View! Cycling along the canal, light dancing on the water, Magical!

I am an amateur photographer, my passion is People and story telling in the art form of photography,

I would classify myself as a liquorice all sorts whose current base is in Australia.

The love of photography was passed on to me by my late father while we were living in Africa, my Dad taught me to freeze memories in TIme for Future generations to enjoy. These memories filled an enormous void for my five siblings and i while my mom lay dying from Lung cancer next to us. I grabbed the screen and slide projector dusted it off and we embarked on an adventure of old cines and slides, This was the best form of counselling we laughed we cried and we absorbed and relived every memory like molecules of water in a desert. Little did my Dad know what he had left us.

My ulitmate dream is to spend my life creatin memories, I love the simplicity of life, and can see peopls pain or joy through their eyes as the eyes are as some people say the window to the soul. 

I am hungry to learn from the experts techniques that you can only gain from a life time of experience, I am known for always having a camera with me, Life Moments captured in time,  Life frozen in time Travel and tragedy. I love to document human emotion.

I captured my twin sisters journey with ovarian cancer through a lens and made a u tube video called Ovarian Cancer ....Don't judge a book by its cover. http://youtu.be/Jd6ixqil50M 

I am a realist who dreams of adventures filled with culture, travel, laughter, but also raw human emotion and tradegdy. 

Why should I be accepted, as I have the most to learn, my creative brain is like a sponge waiting for the technique to be taught to capture sheer brilliance hidden in the depth of my crative mind. I have the drive passion sense of humour, strength anddetermination to fulfil this dream. I have also travelled extensively and know what hardship is about and how to travel lightly having travelled with a four year old and eight year old eight years ago for six months. 

All the photos I have taken for years ahve been on an instant aim and shoot fuji finepix camera, nothing special, but I would LOVE to learn on a SLR camera. This is my dream.

Why chose me, because I have lived and have also faced adversity and human tragedy, as well as joy, I am willing to learn and also willing to get the job done no matter what. 

I am compassionate kind and have been told I have above average communication skills.  I think I just like people. 

Kind Regards
