| Biography: |
This is an excerpt from Skip Rowland's interview here. I've never read anything that summed up my thoughts on photography, and what it means to me personally, better, so rather than wasting my time trying to write it myself, I'm just going to leave what he wrote here:
"Not every image is a prize-winner or a picture of the day, but, if I can capture those moments that make life real, that tell stories that need to be told and shared, then I'm doing a lot more now than I've ever done before. I mean, to have clients who have portraits of their children in their bedrooms, where it's the last thing they see before they go to sleep, to give them that last peaceful smile before they fall asleep--how cool is that? Just to be able to touch lives, to hopefully make a difference. To be free to express myself. Even as a photojournalist, how I capture an image is an opportunity for self-expression. It's an outlet, a challenge, a way of life. I understand where some people are coming from when they say, "Oh, if I did it for money, that would take the fun out of it..." For me, though, I'm just thrilled that I can making a living at something I absolutely love."
