My photographic adventures actually began when I bought my camera in order to take vacation photos on my first trip to Maui in 2003. I enjoyed taking snapshots but had never really been into photography. I actually had to read the manual on the flight there. By the time the plane touched down I had a rudimentary knowledge of the workings of my EOS 10D.

What I discovered there, besides a most beautiful island, was that I had a knack for shooting. It was the trip to Maui that inspired me to buy a decent camera. Thus began my exploration into the world of photography.
