ABOUT ME
My name is Alvin. I was born in Manhattan New York in 2000. Currently, I live in York, Pa where I attend Central York High School. Through the Apollo program, I have decided to further explore my interest in photography. Growing up in the heart of NYC, I always had an interest in city life. My main focus was the people of the city. What interested me was how everyone was doing their own thing. Through one photo you could capture an endless amount of situations. The viewer's perspective of the photo could be the exact opposite of what is really going on. Combining the interest with photography, I explored the concept of street photography. Street photography to me is capturing people in their most raw state. As these people are not professional models but commoners, it captures an individual's motives and leaves the photo natural and full of freedom and emotion. My goal is to explain both sides of the photos I take. I explore the concept of perspective to interpret the motives of the subject and what viewers interpret them to be doing. |
