My friend Nick Jones asked me to take his photos in his Sigma gear because he just crossed the line. I was pretty surprised when he asked me to take his pictures because I knew the pictures were essential. I am not saying I am bad at taking pictures. I’m just saying some people on campus have been doing photography longer than me.

I had a lot of fun taking Nick’s photos. I also learned a lot while taking his photos. It opened up my eyes to new ideas and creativity while taking photos. I do not want to do photography and videography as a profession. It is more of a hobby that I enjoy.

I enjoy photography and videography so much because I like to tell stories. I also like to talk, so that is another reason why. Reflecting on videos and pictures and reliving those moments is also fantastic. I need to get back into taking videos and pictures more consistently again. It does relax me and helps me with my mental peace.

I encourage people to get into photography and videography; so many opportunities come from having a camera. Also, a lot of money is in that business, so that is another reason why I encourage people to get a camera.
