Sometimes you just have to follow your passion- as cliche as it sounds. Not a lot of people can act on all those small, and sometimes, innate desires . And not a lot of people have the willpower to try or experience something new. Maybe it’s the fear of ridicule and failure that stops us dead in our tracks. However, reaching out to other creatives through The Retrospective has lead me to strive towards experiencing fresh new things.
One of two friends, Paul Octavious and Chion Wolfhave, have inspired me to pick up a camera and start shooting. I am in no way close to yeilding comparison to Chion, but I’ve watched her persue her passion for photography and excel greatly at it. She currently works as a freelance photo journalist for WNPR in CT and other print publications.
Her ability to capture people in apparent candid or unintentional moments has always impressed me. Everyone always seems to feel at ease and/or unaware that they are being watched carefully through her lens. When I think of people who I want to be compared to or aspire to be on the same climbing mountain, Chion is definitely one of them. Check out her photo work by clicking here.
