Rising aspirations
I have many favourite photographers but the one that inspires me the most is a young girl, the same age as myself, who hails from Dublin. The shots which she creates and captures are quite fascinating. Leonn Ward is her name. What makes her different is she doesn't shoot with the regular SLR but takes her snaps with a pentax 35mm, film cameras, Polaroids and often the traditional disposables. She's not afraid of expressing herself through these images. That's what I admire about her most because it comes across in each snap. Intimacy is most often the subject to her pieces and her inspirations come from the people around her, most importantly, friends and family. If she's this good now lets see how good she'll be when she's finished her degree. It's pretty exciting to see her blossom with the incredible gift she already has.
