I have a range of subject matter from landscape to portraiture, several compositional techniques and a preference towards vivid & high-key, utilizing a Nikon D5500 and almost always a 200mm telephoto lense.
I have employed my skills primairly for my own pleasure, but have recently began to refine some technical considerations (ISO, aperture, shutter speed) and post-processing (Photoshop) with work experience and taking a couple photography courses for my undergraduate studies.
