Although I haven’t had too much experience taking quality and artistic photos, I really enjoy photographing landscapes and people. I love experiencing the world outdoors and want to learn how to capture its beauty in a single photograph. When I’m going skiing with friends, going on a walk with my dog, or watching the sun set on Chebeague, I always feel inclined to document the event. Recently I traveled to South Korea and had the opportunity to take a copious amount of pictures of everything I saw. All the different places I went to were so beautiful and breathtaking, thus, worthy of documenting. However, looking back at my album of the trip, I wish that they had come out a bit better, which is why I’m so excited to take this course to improve my photography skills.
I’m always motivated to do my best in areas where I feel I’m weakest in. I haven’t had much exposure to photography in the past, and I’m eager to broaden my horizons and strive to learn the ins and outs of taking a good picture. In order to be successful in this class, I feel that I need to learn what I have to do in order to get a great picture and then apply it. Repetition is key for me. I also feel that I learn better in a fun and easygoing environment. I have no doubts that this course won’t provide that though; I can’t wait to begin!
