6 Photos Showing My Progress From When I Started Teaching Myself Photography Last Year To Now
In late 2015 I started teaching myself photography by watching YouTube videos and just going out and practising and experimenting.
I don't really consider myself a photographer, I've always been artistic and saw photography as more of an art form. So I try to refrain from taking the typical 'look at the camera and smile' portraits, instead, I think of it more like a painting. I think about composition and how to tell a story, and I've found candid photos do that the best.
Here are 6 photos that show my progress so far. All of the 'then' photos were taken in late 2015 and the 'now' photos were taken in the middle to later 2016.
I still have so much to learn! Follow me on my journey and see more of my work on my website!

I like almost all the photos. I think it depends on what you are trying to capture. The later ones are more about atheistic, but the earlier ones seem to be more about capturing the person. I like the one with the girl with the mug. It's unique and has a nice warm emotion response.

Thank you so much! Yes, we still cherish the then photos, they are memories that we love and relate to. But I'm leaning on making my photos more artistic now so everyone can relate to them and cherish them also.
