Before we started the interview, she told me she followed BlinkPix and then confided in me that she wasn't sure she would be able to answer my questions as well as other people do. I told her she'd do fine and asked her what she was passionate about.
"People and photography! My dad used to have a really nice camera and I used to ask to borrow it and then he let me use it for a couple of years, and then he was like, 'Noooo, let's look into getting you your own camera.' So I got my own camera, and I actually have it with me right now. I've gone on mission trips, I have a website, too. I enjoy shooting people, animals, nature, landscapes, and things like that."
"What do you think it is that draws people to photography, to take pictures? Why do we feel we have to?"
"Seeing things on a different angle! Maybe, like, things that other people wouldn't see? You just see something and you're like, 'Oooh! That's nice!'"
"And you were worried that you wouldn't have good answers?"
She laughed, proudly.
