ABOUT ME
Hey, my name is Derek, I grew up with an aunt that did photography as a hobby. I always wanted to play with the camera and I didn't know why, when she would do the family portraits setting up the scene and taking the photos looked like so much fun. I was indeed able to discover my passion for photography in high school when I took my first course in which my teacher awarded me for exceeding in the class. This would lead to me getting my first camera which led me to want to make this my career. I want to take photos of people and capture a moment for people, help express someone's idea, or even show ones best self. I have further educated myself in the aspects of photography at Lassalle College Vancouver where I was able to further develop my style and pick up new skills. Following through with your plans and dreams in life isn't supposed to be a comfortable experience which is why I am always willing to try new things and give people's ideas a try. I love the feeling of a candid shot it always has the rawest emotions that were in that specific time. I love working with people who have a solid idea of what they would like to express people being passionate about things is one of the best things that I love to see in this world. When I'm not behind the camera I am with my friends spending personal time making important memories.
