A photographer from Macassar

Llowellyn Gelandt is a self-taught photographer from Macasssar. He has no formal taring or qualification in photography however he is currently studying to become a educator. His passion for photography started when he was 10 years-old, way back in 2005. He started taking pictures on a camera and the rest is history. He experiments with different photo editing software such as Adobe, Photoshop and started editing his families pictures. Due to school and his studies he went quite, however he always take pictures of landscapes, nature and things he find interesting on with his phone. 

Over a year ago he started taking pictures as a hobby and now he is a known photographer in his area Macassar. Llowellyn takes pictures of landscape and portraits. He likes capturing timeless moments and prefer taking pictures of someone when they are not posing, as this makes their emotion more raw and real. He still learn and acquire skills through Youtube and getting tips from established photographers that inspires him. Llowellyn believes anyone can be a photographer and one does not need to study photography or anything they are passionate about and love. They should just do what they love even if they did not study it and believe a career in photography is profitable and one can make money with the right support systems. He does not believe photography will die out, with smartphones becoming more advanced and nowadays anyone can take pictures from their phones, it will not have the same quality as a real professional camera.
