In our weekly photo blog, one of the challenges was to take photos that tell a story.

Self-Portrait

To represent what people think of me, I chose this photo of my sister. I feel like I am seen as the photographer’s friend and I love the sky. I am always taking photos of anything that I think looks cool or beautiful. I also enjoy capturing the candids of the people around me so…

While on spring break we went to the coast and got to see so many beautiful sites. I was so impressed by the architecture and design of this bridge we saw. I feel like bridges are very interesting and crucial in our world. They may not be super modern but I feel like they are…
