Since I’m new here, I’d like to
start of by telling you a little bit about my background. My name is Abigail
Joy Mies and I fell in love with photography when I was about 12 years old, but
I didn’t know it at the time. One day I was out on the countryside with my aunt
who is a professional artist, mostly with painting but she uses photos for her
inspiration. While we were taking pictures of windmills and old beaten down
barns all I could think about was how was I possibly going to paint something
that I would be proud of. Since I tend to be very critical of my own work I was
never satisfied and decided that painting wasn’t my forte. After a few years of
art classes and never being happy with the outcome of numerous projects I’m
back to the very beginning, photography.
I shoot seniors and families but
mostly sports. In high school I was the photo editor for my school newspaper
and am currently a freshman in college working for the university paper. I was
the sports photographer for the first semester but quickly worked my way up to
photo editor for the second. I am extremely happy with where my career is
headed and I cant wait to see where it will take me. I look forward to continue my education and
keep up the progress with my photography.
With this blog I hope to showcase
my work and get my name out there! J
