Thank you for stopping by and taking the time to read this.

Erin

I'm most active on flickr, but you can also visit my new profiles on DevaintArt and ModelMayhem. Based on requests from others, I also have a little store here. If there's something on my photostream that's not in my store and you really want it, let me know via flicrkmail and we'll work it out.

I am a self taught photographer. I've had a passion and appreciation for it for years. I'm still learning. a whole lot. I guess, everyone is...

When I began shooting, my style was very schizophrenic, to say the least. I like to experiment. Within a few months of experimenting, developed a passion for fashion photography. It is what I enjoy shooting more than anything.

Flickr has been truly inspiring. For me, the work of these tremendously gifted artists transcends every barrier of creativity and imagination and has been a true inspiration to me:

Zhang Jingna
An
LaraJade
Aneta Kowalczyk
Eplefat
Federico Erra
Chrissie White
Christine S.

The last thing I'd like to say is that my best work is still to come and I hope you stay tuned.

    "His favourite photographic toy, from what I can tell viewing his stream thus far, is light. Combining this obsession with that of minimalism, and adding a hint of perfection will give you the essence of Amit's stream. He began in the world of nature, but is extending his portfolio into the world of human interaction, the world of portraiture. Although most find it a hard transition to make, he seems to have gone through it seamlessly. His eye is so practiced, that I believe even without his beloved Nikon, even if he were given a horrible quality camera phone, he would still be producing photographs that would keep people coming back to his stream.

    Keep up the amazing work Amit."

    "Amit is one of my favourite photographers on Flickr. He has the ability to infuse such honesty and genuine joy into each and every one of his images, whether it be a textured cityscape or field of flowers - which he should never give up by the way! Amit has a true gift and I agree, a photographer and man that you can trust. Thank you for sharing, Amit."

    "While I haven't been viewing Amit's stream for long, I always keep coming back to it for some reason. It's apparent that he has a real talent for finding beauty in just about anything, and then an eye for composing it all perfectly. Aside from all that, his processing style is absolutely flawless. I constantly marvel at how he adapts his skills to suit a variety of different situations, from city scenes, to nature. His work is a real inspiration."

    "I'm updating this testimonial, hope you don't mind. :-)

    I'm more impressed with Amit now than ever. It's been a pleasure watching him break free and begin to discover who he is and what he has to say in the world of photography. He's only been on flickr for about six months, and during this time period his talent has sky-rocketed. It's really been a joy to watch him. :-)"

    "Amit completely changed the way I thought about photography. A quick glance of his stream reveals a lot of fans...as expected. But he's not just some bigshot popular guy like some folks on flickr, he's someone you can trust. I was recommended to look at his photos by a friend and boy was she right. I've learned so much from Amit already and I'm sure I'll learn a lot more."

    "Here is your Testimonial, which truly comes from the Heart! ;)

    Amit has the innate ability to take ordinary things and make them extraordinary. He is an inspirational Photographer who shares his wit, talent, and wisdom with other flickr users. His work amazes and inspires me every time I look at it. He has a style of his own, capturing simplicity in a very unique way. With heir meditative and calming effect, it's very easy to get lost in his pictures. I admire his talent and his ability to create amazing, minimalist-photographs. Keep up the remarkable Work, Amit. You will go far with it."

    "digitalgopher is one of the main reasons I decided to make a Flickr account. I am usually over at Zooomr, but he has such amazing work that I had to make an account just to comment on his stuff. From what I've seen he has only had his camera a short time but has come very, very far in his photography. He has a very unique style and I enjoy looking at his shots. Keep it up, and I can't wait to see more."

    Seriously, you are reading this because his stream kicks butt and you want more. Amit shoot everything, from his little weed grass to people and he does a damn good job at it. His processing is an art that most people will try to mimic but will probably fail miserably because...well, that's just Amit. :)

    Glad I got to know him. He is truly a Flickr Friend."

    One of my favorite things is his ability to capture simplicity as well as he does. And being one to use PS, I'm really impressed at his amazing shots that come straight out of the camera! Please, keep up the wonderful work. ;-)"

    "Not only is Amit an amazning photographer, but he's also a cool guy, online and in person. He has such a great eye for all the little things that nomral people (not that he's not normal) would pass over... and his results are always fantastic. :) He's also amazing at converting stuff into sepia. Seriously. And he claims he only uses Picasa...

    ...but Amit's a great guy, an amazzzzzzing photographer, and his shots are always the first I check out when I log on to flickr. Definitely check out his stuff, but remember: keep your cursor away from the fave button... or you could be there all night. ;)"

    "When I first discovered Amit's photostream, he had a mere 26 photos. Still, I was struck by what he did have because they were simplistic and beautiful. I added him as a contact instantly because I was curious to see what else he would upload. I must say he definitely did not disappoint! Everything he uploads has its own uniqueness and attractive quality. (I still can't believe he's new to photography either, because he definitely doesn't seem like it!). A lovely photostream =)"
