About the Photographer
As you probably know, my name is Jill, I'm fifteen years old,
and my life revolves around my horse, and photography. I
own a horse named Gus, and he is my one true love.
Photography came into my life a few years ago, but it really
blossomed into my passion when I received Canon's first
Digital Rebel for my birthday in 2004. For the years to
follow, I actively took pictures of horses, nature, and other
animals. However, in January 2007, my camera, along with
all my lenses and memory cards, was stolen from my checked bag
in an airport. I was absolutely crushed, but I collected
myself enough to purchase the Canon EOS 30D the next day, and
another lens. I also recently bought myself the Canon
EOS Rebel XT to use more often, since it is smaller and
cheaper than the 30D. My photos are most popular with
the owners/riders at my barn. At the last barn I boarded
at, I was the official barn photographer, and I have just
started to establish myself at my current stable. By
selling prints, doing photo shoots, and making photo disks, I
earn enough money to keep up my collection of cameras and
lenses and memory cards. Yes, I do want to be a
photographer when I grow up. And I figure, if I start
young, how could I fail? |
