How does photography contribute to my personal and professional development
1. 1 Confidential
Photography brings you closer to your own self
Photography is reflection and spending time with yourself. Your photographs not only talk about the places or people you capture, but they also reflect the
way you look at them. Photography always provides me great moments to learn furthermore about myself and my own reflection of the world.

Photography helps you to understand people better
When I photograph someone, I get immersed into his soul, his heart and his mind. I observe him and try to understand what is behind his appearance, try to
discover his story and his culture. Photography has taught me to look at people in a different way and being able to go one level deeper.

Photography improves your attention to details
Before I started photographing, sometimes I was going around without really paying attention to my surroundings. Photography has taught me to be much
more conscious and aware about the world that is around me, discovering the beauty and uniqueness that reside within the small things.

Photography helps you to express emotions and feelings
Photography is an art of expression. It has provided me the ability to express my own and other people’s feelings, which I believe is a key element for
personal development. Through my camera, I am now able to share emotions with the rest of the world in a way that I can better explain and understand.

Photography brings you patience
To me, photography is about being patient and not rushing into capturing something. In a world where we all seek for immediate results and satisfaction, it is
somehow comforting to be able to spend those moments where time stops and I only have to worry about the scene I am living.

Photography teaches you to react quickly to unexpected situations
Photography is not only about patience and waiting for the perfect moment, but also about being able to react in a few seconds when this one arrives.
Photography has taught me to act quickly upon certain situations, being able to anticipate and have my tools ready to capture the moment before it is gone.

Photography helps you to realize new ideas
Just as when you are innovating, when you are photographing, there is a certain idea in your head that you are trying to visualize and make it visible to the
rest of the world. Photography can really teach you how to turn ideas into something tangible. To not only have a vision, but also to be able to realize it.
