Hello fellow photography enthusiasts!

1 year 1 month ago #751159 by J Stecker
My name is John, and I'm a 32-year-old photographer hailing from middle of nowhere in Vermont. I've been married to my wonderful spouse for several years now, and together we have a beautiful and curious child who keeps us on our toes. My work involves a great deal of traveling, which has been both a blessing and a challenge, but it has certainly fueled my passion for photography.
I first picked up a camera three years ago, and it wasn't long before I found myself enamored with the art of capturing moments and immortalizing memories. Despite being relatively new to the field, I have been eager to learn and develop my skills, soaking up knowledge from various sources and experimenting with different techniques.
My trusty companion on my photographic journey is my Canon 5D Mark IV. It has served me well thus far, and I am constantly impressed by its capabilities and versatility. I love to explore various genres of photography, but I have a particular fondness for landscape, street, and travel photography – partly because of my frequent trips for work. The opportunity to discover new places and cultures has been a driving force in my pursuit of this art form.
As a husband, father, and globetrotter, I am always looking for ways to balance my work, family, and photography. It's a continuous learning experience, and I'm eager to connect with others who share similar interests and challenges. I'm thrilled to join this forum, and I'm looking forward to sharing my experiences, learning from all of you, and growing together as photographers.
Feel free to reach out and ask any questions, share your own stories, or simply say hello. Let's embark on this photographic adventure together!
Happy shooting!
