Unmade Photo

-

The photo I wish I had an image of is my Dad seeing his parents for the first time in twenty-two years. It was such a powerful moment watching my father and grandmother start crying as they hugged and just hearing her say "my beautiful boy". This was also the first time I got to meet my grandparents. It’s a moment that will always define my family and our life. My Grandparents are such a huge part of our life now I can't imagine it without them.

My Mom was working there as a secretary when my Dad was offered a job out of college to work for Kodak in Australia. After a while they asked him if he was interested in going on assignment in America. They sent him to Rochester N.Y. where he met my mom. They have now been married for 27 years and my dad's been with Kodak for 33. This is why I have always loved photography. In a way it is responsible for my very existence. In high school I was able to take my first digital photography class and loved it. Because of this I wanted to take this course as a way to build on my knowledge and ability as a photographer.
