As time went along I used money I gained from my forklifting job to by a better dslr camera, more lenses, flashes, and all the other accessories that came with it. Photography is an expensive industry to get into, and it took me over 5 years to afford the equipment I need, especially when I'm living on my own...in the lower mainland...on a forklift budget.

Eventually I was able to make my own photo studio... in my studio apartment (bad pun, I know). I enjoy the fact that my apartment is able to create the space I need to take photos from essentially a home office. I've really enjoyed what I'm doing, and I can't see myself doing anything else more fulfilling in life.
