About Me!
My name is Chastity and I am a sophomore in high school. I want to grow up and become an engineer, so maybe some of my accomplishments could be photographed in the future. I like to hang out with my friends and do different activities on my free time. I volunteer at a non-food pantry during the summer and I like to read a lot. I am a very good student and am on the VEX and Tennis team.
Taking pictures has always been an interest of mine. I find it fascinating how you can capture the perfect moment in one single picture. I enjoy most types of photography as long as they are well-taken pictures. Although I would have to say that my favorite type of photography is scenic. I love looking at a picture of the outdoors and being able to see that exact same view over and over again; especially if the view is a magical one. My favorite season to take picture during is summer. It feels like everyone is in a happier mood and everything is brighter during the summer months. The moods are more upbeat and fun to look at. I enjoy photography because it is something almost everyone can do, but you have to have a special skill to get just the right pictures. I love those pictures at weddings where the groom is looking at the bride in a way that could never be explained in words. That's on thing about photography that makes it so special; if you can't explain something in words, you can explain it in a picture.
I don't really have a special camera that I use to take pictures. I used my old phone, the Droid Razor M, to take most of my photos. But I just got a new phone, the Samsung Galaxy S5, and am now going to be taking pictures with that one. I don't edit a lot of my pictures because I think that they are a lot better in a natural state. When I do edit my pictures I usually use Instagram or #SquareDroid. I use #SquareDroid because not all of my pictures are able to fit on Instagram. They are usually too large. But with #SquareDroid I can put a border on both sides of the picture and then it is able to fit on Instagram.
Lee Towndrow is a professional photographer who's work I really like. He takes pictures of people on their everyday life, but makes it look special. He captures the emotions of the people in the pictures he takes. If he took a picture of a man telling a story, you can practically feel the suspension when you are looking at the picture because you want to know what the man is talking about. Or if a little boy just found something interesting at the beach, you can see how surprised and curious the boy is. You want to know what he has seen because the picture is taken that well. Towndrow's work makes you feel like you are the person taking the photograph. It is that good. The link to his website is http://leetowndrow.com/weekend/?pid=464.
