Final Portfolio

It's crazy how two years of studying Photography is officially done. I used to always be so excited when school was done for the summer, I used to countdown the days and shake with excitement. I think this is the first time in years I am not doing any of those.

These past two years have completely changed me and I could honestly say, for the better. I am much more of a happier person then I was 3 or 4 years ago studying a program I did not enjoy. I have met the most amazing people and professors. I have enjoyed every moment of it. I have never felt so happy and proud of myself in a long time. The stress, the exhaustion, the worries, it was all worth the sleepless nights. All that hard work really paid off. 

Meeting my new friends has been a thrill. So many amazing and fun memories. If it weren’t for them, I don’t think I could have done what I have done this year. We’ve all helped each other, lasted late long nights, cried on each other’s shoulders and laughed endlessly at our stupidities. Not only have I learnt techniques in photography, but also I have learnt the value of true friendship and that is something I am beyond thankful for.

As for the professors, this program would not be where it is now. This program is so welcoming and feels like one big family. I am ever so glad I got to meet each one and learn from all their many skills and talents.

Thank you to everyone who has supported me and been there for me for the past 2 years. If it weren’t for you, I would not be chasing my dreams like I am now. I look forward to new adventures and new opportunities.
