Quentin E Townsend Jr

Photography, I started operating a digital camera when I was eleven years old, I had no idea what I was doing so I practice by photographing self portraits of myself on a little digital camera that i’ve gotten for Christmas and got feedback from friends on an old social media website called Myspace. I didn’t even have proper Photography, I started operating a digital camera when I was eleven years old, I had no idea what I was doing so I practice by photographing self portraits of myself on a little digital camera that i’ve gotten for Christmas and got feedback from friends on an old social media website called Myspace. I didn’t even have proper editing tools so i edit photos on websites like Picnic.com, facebook, and of course Myspace. Now that I look at it it seem pretty silly but I have no regrets for those terrible cropped images, embarrassing filters and soft lighting photos that were giving to me on these sites because little did I know I was preparing myself for my future. This was all just for fun and practice, I’ve gain a few more years of experimenting with photography and my sister realize how serious I was taking it so she brought me my first Canon Rebel XS. My first DSLR camera, me and that camera couldn’t be separated, I’ve shot with that camera in center city of Philly, old city, West Philly, wherever i can, I’ve even used it for my high school senior yearbook committee. After high school I’ve studied photographic imaging at CCP & The Art Institute of Philadelphia to learn how properly use the camera and test my skills as a photographer. During that time I joined other photography companies such as Picture People, Photogenic Inc, George Street & Lifetouch and many more. I became comfortable hitting the shutter every single day that it turned into my lifestyle, and a career that I love oh so much. I am passionate about what I do and I love the fact that I can share it with you! Thank you for taking the time visiting my website and reading this short story about me, I hope you enjoy the content, projects and feel aspired to live your dreams so you can live your life as happily as it should be.editing tools so i edit photos on websites like Picnic.com, facebook, and of course Myspace.
