Amateur Photographer

I have always had an interest in photography. I take a lot of pictures of my personal life as well as community events. For the past several years I have been doing the graduation pictures for the local school. One of my nature pictures will be featured in a book that will be published by Nunatukavut through their research, education and culture department.
