I know there are a good group of us on this site(and others) but why do you shoot?

Why do you all shoot? What made you get in to photography? What is your favorite style?(bw/color/ect) What is your favorite thing to shoot? What was the first digital/35mm camera?

Why do I shoot - I got in to photography because of my dad. He has a 35mm canon that he takes shots of plastic models/figures..And I was always fasinated with them. And it became larger when i worked for BB in the digital imaging dept.

My fav style is b&w mixed with color.:bigthumbu

Favorite thing to shoot would have to be automotive and then nature..i dont really like doing shoots/weddings...not really a people person unless you know me. Otherwise i am fine being just feet away from cars sliding, speeding, or wrecking infront of me(yes i have been in some close calls). But i also enjoy the people that surround the drifting, racing, and automotive world. I have meet some people that i really enjoy chatting with, and shooting and others well you know.

First digital was a Sony p828 (still have)

I got into photography from looking at pics online and was amazed at how so much detail can be captured in a picture. I started using my sis 7.1 mp canon p&s about 3 years ago. started learning about aperature/exposure and started using the camera in manual mode.

Im not sure about my favorite style. I do like action pictures. sports,panning etc.

my favorite thing to shoot is deff automotive photography. I love the rig shots and taking pics of the small details that many people overlook.

after i told my dad i wanted a dslr I learned that he was into photography when he was younger

my 1st camera was a canon digital rebel
currently own a canon 30d
 
Why do you shoot? I got into photography in high school, I use to do video production as well. Then it just went more toward photography. I moved to ft lauderdale to study photography at the Art Institute of Ft lauderdale. Then I met Myculture, and they inspired me to shoot Drifting, then I fell even more in love with it.

What is your favorite style? I try to mix up my style. But make it feel like you were there :D

What is your favorite thing to shoot? Child Photography.. Just Capturing Moments, People Pictures, Drifting. I love it all :D

What was the first digital/35mm camera? I started with a Nikon 33mm, then Moved up to canon rebel xt.
