Hello, my name is Dez. I am really sorry for the delay on introducing myself, the last couple months have been crazy but I am really excited to be a part of this blog and glean some great tips!
Well, I am 19 and currently a sophomore in college. I attended OSU last year but transferred to Western this year. I have no idea what I am studying or what I want to be when I grow up (I love hearing about different jobs and others experiences and any advice is much needed and appreciated!) I don't totally enjoy every aspect of school, but for now, it is good for me and where I feel led to be. I also am a volunteer Young Life leader. All of these activities fill my schedule and keep me going, and on top of these I have recently added some photography into the mix.
This September I started a Facebook page, dez d. photography, so my hobby has now turned into a little job for me! I have been very fortunate and appreciate all of the awesome and exciting experiences that have come along with this new endeavor. I have a ton to learn and at times it can be totally overwhelming, but God is good even in the chaos.
As for my equipment, I recently upgraded from my Canon Rebel Xsi to a Canon 5D Mark ll, which I absolutely love. I use Lightroom and Photoshop elements to edit.
Some more random things I love are; Jesus, my family, my friends, summer time, taking pictures (don't we all? :) ), espresso, music, kids, sunset skies, the beach, Shore Acres Christmas lights, the Human Bean and many many more things :)
