My Story
In 2019, one of my best friends started a news outlet dedicated to updating people about the Atlantic League of Professional Baseball. Inspired to find my passion, I began looking for my calling. At first, I also tried starting a minor-league news outlet. That didn’t last very long. Although I enjoy writing, I was still looking for something more creative.
One afternoon while searching through my closets I found my first camera…my parents’ Canon EOS from the early 2000s. It was almost older than me! I brought it to the next Somerset Patriots game and found my love for sports media and photography. That's when I founded ALPB Photography. I began working hard perfecting my skills as a photographer and learning Photoshop and Lightroom, as well as other programs. I enjoyed the work I was producing and decided to branch out.
When I started this endeavor, I was still in high school. Now, I am a college junior. I have met a lot of people who have helped guide me along my path. These individuals have helped me pursue my dreams of photography and videography. I am so humbled and excited to share my story through writing, videos, and of course, photography.
