When I First Started Photography vs. Now

The other day I was scrolling through my albums on Facebook and I found some old photos from when I first started doing photography. I started doing photography in high school. I was familiar with filmmaking. I had been taking classes since age 10 and had always been interested in cameras. I remember my first photography camera being a Nikon D3000. Later on in high school I took Digital Photography. This is when I really started getting interested in photography and where a lot of these photos come from. For this post, I’ve collected 5 different When I First Started Photography vs. Now sets. Make sure to use the sliders to see the Before vs. Now photos!

I hope seeing the differences between the photographs from when I first started vs. now help inspire you. The only way to get better is practice practice practice.
