Photography for me is a way to express myself. Quite obviously, one can’t express all his/her feeling just by writing, saying or in any other form of language. And thats for what I use photography. My photographs portray my love towards the things around me including nature, friends and everything else.
I feel that letting people see what is around my little area in the world helps them connect to what else is out there – authentically! Being authentic with clouds, bees in flowers, toys laying about, and other extraordinary natural beauty is what we find everyday! I’m so happy that others can make their way and inspire others to capture any beauty! Eventually, I would love to have other contribute to the site and gain exposure for their beautiful areas. Thank you!
Learning and taking photos since I was a young kid, I grew a lot and once aspired to be a National Geographic Photojournalist, this dream is transformed into my photoblog and it was awesome learning new tricks, techniques, skills and making new photography and travel fans locally and internationally.
Your movement would inspire photographer of all levels here and helping to build a new friendship, network and community building in the love for photography !
This site is unbelievable!! And this free promotion is beyond generous. I want to be a part of “The Soul Behind The Camera” because I want to showcase my style, It’s difficult anymore to be “different” in photo land and still keep your “muse”, I find myself, time and time again taking pictures that I think other people want to see and it’s exhausting. I have made a promise to myself to “Make Photography Fun Again!!”… I make photo’s for me, and I want to share. Thank you for this opportunity.

I’ve been taking photographs for as long as I can remember. I recently determined to go back to school and study it full time in the hopes of making it my career.
Well, I love photography because it seriously makes you more aware of your surroundings. When I had gone into photography, I paid more attention to the clouds, the scenery, etc looking for something interesting to photograph. Haha…
. It also makes you know that beauty is all around us and just needs to be discovered.
It is also a wonderful opportunity to have your work seen on flickr. And, I love flickr because you can meet tons of other very talented and friendly photographers and see so many of their super stunning shots!
My father and grandfather were photographers so it’s something I’ve always been passionate about. As a musician I have always taken a camera with me on tour to capture little moments and shoot other bands we play with, but it’s only in the past couple of years that I’ve begun to take photography more seriously as a profession and have become increasingly focussed on studio portraiture. I hope you’ll enjoy my portraits, I feel that I have developed a dark and dramatic style that I can call my own.
I have a strong interest in Art and Photography and I believe still photos live and give more passion that videos. A photo can be translated by many people in many different Directive .. Different Interpretations …
I’m pretty much interested in Portraits, Landscape and Artsy photos.
Even though my family has been into photography for long but I am pretty new into this. There is so much to learn in so less time..
Source of inspiration… things that breathe. I am a ‘people’ photographer (people can = animals too). I see every image as more interesting when it includes a character. While I certainly admire many photographs and photographers that don’t focus on ‘people’ as their subject, I believe that souls lend great storytelling enhancement to the expression of photography… both in front of, and behind the lens.
Love the idea of this – would be honored to among your featured photographers – look forward to connecting to fellow photographers in the field.
an amateur who loves taking pictures and gadgets
I’m a sort of a french amateur photographer. I fall in love with the world vision, throught my lens two years ago, and from this moment I think about it everyday.
What I try to show is what seems to be important to me on different matters : Portrait, landscape, cars, … I don’t have any favourite subject at all. Anything can be interesting, and that is why photography is something essential to me, you can walk the same way everyday but you can discover something new on it everyday too!
Iam just a normal human, i still breath air …to do something different(a very over used word) i have made my changes and have decided to show the world, HOW WOULD IT BE TO SEE THROUGH MY EYES, My Nikon D90 surely does help…. yet to show the world my best…just want to be read for that day and make sure a lot of people get to witness that event….that is why i hope to be listed ….Peace
I love my cam, I love my models, i love what I´m doing. Can there be more soul in a thing???
I don’t know much from photography itself, I just take my cameras and I play with their setup, trying to know for what is this and that. In the hope that I can show others how I see the world. So any comments on my photos are very welcome.
thanks
Photography, for me, is not just about camera and science. It is about all the efforts and emotions gone behind capturing a moment. The whole process has helped me grow as a person. I wish to make every photograph special.

Well, I like photography because it allows me to create new visual worlds with original athmospheres and hopefully generate emotions in people’s mind.
I’ve always been captivated by photography. I got my first camera four years ago, but it has only been in the past few months that I’ve really started exploring what I can do. I’m entirely self-taught and learning all the time.
Ive wanted to do photography since I was a little girl. I remember my neighbor finding an amazing film camera in his wall when he was fixing his house up. He gave it to me and I knew its what I wanted to do. I would spend hours outside taking pictures of anything I found interesting Sad to say the camera was stolen by one of my best friends. Now im older, I have my own camera and a beautiful baby boy to take lots of pictures of.
We will see where photography takes me. Im excited to see.
So why do I love photography?
Photography is an art,it is creative and provides you the reason and time to think.It helps in analyzing an incident or a landscape from a different perspective or from your perspective.It is fun to click pictures and to freeze time.I started it as a hobby few weeks back and totally loving it
Having a background of journalism and with training in photography I decided to use texts and visual as a tool to communicate with the world.
I’m a storyteller toting a camera with incredibly cool characters to shoot. Being a photographer is a great priviledge. I get to discover and peel back the layers of people to show you their true selves in images.
“I believe great pictures can speak back and for this reason I strive to learn their language.”

This is an old camera that we keep as family treasure from my granddad. In my family we were always loving photographs. I have it in my heart since childhood, the willingness to take beautiful and meaningful pictures, and passion to learn this well.
