Emily.Rae's photostream

I am a 20 year old college student majoring in Social Work. I got my first point and shoot a couple of years ago for a Christmas present and loved being able to go around and take pictures. I first became truly interested in photography during high school and I wanted to take a photography class that they offered but couldn't because of a pre-requisite that needed to be fulfilled first. I began to learn a bit about photography through my father, who has been interested in photography for a long time, through reading about it, and, of course, through actually taking pictures. During my first year of college I was very busy but still fostered my love for photography. At the beginning of this past summer I was finally able to get a camera other than the point and shoot that I had been using for so long. I got a Canon EOS Rebel XS at the beginning of this Summer (Summer 2009) and have really enjoyed learning how to use it and even more about the techniques of photography. I have gotten the chance to take so many photographs and have forced some of my friends and siblings to go out with me and let me photograph them. (: As of now photography is just a hobby for me, but perhaps it can become some sort of side job or at least stay something that I do for fun when I can! (:

I also just recently created a facebook page/group thing where I have a lot of my photography. If you want you can become a fan. (:
