I purchased my first DSLR camera in 2018 knowing nothing about it at all but hoping it would be a tool I could use to manage low mental health.

I was struggling with life, feeling isolated, disconnected and incredibly alone due to travelling for work 40+ weeks a year for work.

The camera slowed my world down, changed the way I looked at things, I noticed light and shadows, details previously unseen. I was thankful I seemed to have a bit of a knack and now 5 years into this journey I am pushing myself into the world of professional awards and working towards a professional accreditation.

There is no growth staying in my comfort zone so I am pushing to step outside of it.
