The Photographer- Reilly Stedge  

I took these photos while taking photography at Elmira College. When the professor asked why everyone was taking this class I answered “because it was one of the few arts I actually felt good at.” Of course this got some laughs, but I was also somewhat serious. Through the class I learned of different styles and photographers. I learned and developed skills with photography, breaking boundaries, breaking the “rules” of photography, learning to not be bound to what others say is the “right” way to be an artist, and I learned how to be proud of my work.
