Macro photography, for me, isn't just about getting up close. It's about pulling back the veil, revealing all those intricate layers we usually rush past. It gives me a chance to really highlight the eccentric, indescribable masterpieces we all are in God's eyes, showing that divine artistry in every tiny detail.
Where do you find inspiration?I find my truest inspiration when I'm looking through God's eyes, not just my own. It's in seeing through a lens of truth and love, a positive perspective, that I can expand my vision. That's how I find the bigger picture in all those mundane things we often take for granted.
What would you do with $25,000?First thing on the list would be get my teeth repaired, being a photographer we don’t have insurance so the bills have just stacked up to exactly 25K. I would definitely get a better macro, lens and camera as well as give back to God, the way that he has given me.
