“I’m not entirely sure where or when my love for photography began, but I know it increased dramatically after I posted my first picture on Instagram in 2012. From there, I was inspired by what I was seeing on the platform and wanted to photograph all the amazing things in nature. The macro lens gave me an entirely different perspective. Sometimes pictures taken with a macro lens look so different from how they look in their naked eye form that they are unrecognizable. I am fascinated by what I see when I look through my lens.”
