Amanda Johansen Photography

Picture
My name is Amanda Johansen, I am seventeen and i LOVE photography. There are two big reasons why. First is i hate losing the past and the most important events in my life, photography lets me keep those moments forever, so my memories are always with me. The second reason is, i love to take the most simple, everyday things the things that we dont think twice about and turn them into somthing amazing. I love to make people really think about, and see the beauty, in things we dont think twice about on a daily basis. Things as simple as a rock or a pepsi can, photography lets me do that. Photographs bring out all kinds of emotions in people happiness,sadness,anger,joy,humor,sympathy therefore photography in a sense is an outlet for me to make people feel, which i think is amazing. Anyways theres a bit on why i love photography, hope you enjoy! if you have any questions or comments please email me at [email protected]








some quotes i agree with,

A photograph is usually looked at - seldom looked into.  ~Ansel Adams

A good snapshot stops a moment from running away.  ~Eudora Welty

The camera can photograph thought.  ~Dirk Bogarde

Buying a Nikon doesn't make you a photographer.  It makes you a Nikon owner.  ~Author Unknown

To me, photography is an art of observation. It's about finding something interesting in an ordinary place... I've found it has little to do with the things you see and everything to do with the way you see them.  
Elliott Erwitt quotes
