Coscritto Photography is finally taking off. So for everyone out there, let me tell you a little about it's photographer.
I'm 20 year old extremely passionate freelance photographer. When not out taking photos, I'm a law student, working her way through the education system.
It's been so long ago when I first got into photography that I can't even remember what truly inspired me to take photos. All I know is that the more photographs I seem to take, the more I fall in love with the art. I think the earliest photograph I can remember taking was this one.
I remember escaping into the colours, and I thought to myself that I want to take more. I began to use pictures as a way of escaping into this world that didn't really exist when I took my eye off the viewfinder.
I was very young and lost and confused. I didn't know where I was going with anything. I was in the midst of my A-Levels. My background had prepped me for a career in medicine, but I detested science. Detest is a strong word, it was logical, rational and made sense. I didn't enjoy it at all. I felt there was very little creativity and freedom in Science.
Today, I believe that Science can be creative, but try telling that to a 16 year old...
I then got talking to my grandfather, who decided that it was time I got a proper camera. My lovely grandfather, to who I truly credit the beginning of my artistic career. He told me about this whole collection of cameras that he himself had, and for a long time in a while I related to someone. I finally felt that my family made some sense.
He bought me a beginners DSLR from the little money he had, which I thought was the most amazing thing on the planet. It was four times the price as compared to any other camera I had ever owned! Nowadays, you can't even find one Sony lens for the cost of that camera. But I loved it to bits.
A Sony A100, to which I still credit some of my most favourite photographs taken. It was big and clunky and came with the standard lens that I had not quite understood how exactly to utilise. It was so different to the compact Canon digital camera I had, which was discreet, sneaky and easily fit in my pocket. A present from my father...
The rest of the story, I will continue later. For now, you can find me here:
