Me,
Myself and Marcia: A never ending love
affair with Photography
I fell in love with photography when I was 16yrs
old. In high school, I had to have an art or music class as part of my school
curriculum. I couldn't play a musical
instrument (trust me I tried, and I sucked big time) Since I draw like a 2yr
old, therefore drawing was not an option either. Photography was my last and
only choice. My photography teacher, Ms. Adrian Wander immediately recognized
my natural artistic eye. She encouraged me to study photography in college. In 1998, I earned my degree in photojournalism
and commercial photography.
Though my camera, photography became my
talent and my art. Then after, it turned into my passion, my therapy, and my
sanctuary. I felt like photography captured me, seduced
me, and made me fall in love with it. I
find harmony within myself because of photography. It teaches me to be patient,
to think openly, and innovatively. I am continually learning about myself
through photography.
“Photography is in my heart. It is my calling.
My life’s passion is to produce astonishing photos to share with the world.
Nothing makes me happier than creating incredible images and memories for generations
to share.”
