Wandering traveler, cities and landscapes

Canada | Friday, October 24, 2014 | flickr photos

I started taking photos in 2009 and it has become more than a hobby. After my parents passed away before their time a few years ago, I decided to save up money and then quit my corporate job to pursue my passion. You only live once and I decided to make the best of the time I have.

I'm currently mostly living off my investments and savings, in hopes of making a full time living with my photos, which in this day and age, is a very hard thing to do.

I love capturing moments as they happen, and have mostly done street and urban photos. I've taken a few trips where I find myself in love with travel photography... the moments you live and capture, sleepless nights to catch an aurora, early mornings watching a sunrise... it is something that I need and I find fuels my creativity.

I'm looking for any leg up that can help me in turning this hobby into a career. While I've just started on that path, I am far from being self sufficient in loving off my pictures. Maybe one day :)
