We caught up with the brilliant and insightful Shotsbyskylaflame . a few weeks ago and have shared our conversation below.

Shotsbyskylaflame, appreciate you joining us today. Can you talk to us about how you learned to do what you do?

I Began Learning Photography By Taking Outfit Photos Of My Former Friends Whenever We Went Out Doing Whatever We Felt Like Doing During Those Times. From What I Know Now I Don’t Believe That I Could’ve Sped Up The Process Because I Feel Like I Learned What I Needed To Learn During The Time I Needed To Learn Them. The Skill Of Using Natural Light Is The Most Essential Because It Set The Foundation Of Understanding How I Could Manipulate Light Especially When Its Not Totally In My Control. There Wasn’t Any Obstacles That Stood In My Way Of Learning More.

Awesome – so before we get into the rest of our questions, can you briefly introduce yourself to our readers.

I’m A Photographer From Baltimore, MD That Mainly Uses Portraits That Are Photo Manipulated In Abstract Ways To Tell Stories. I’m Proud Of The Stories And Worlds I’ve Created Through My Art And Also The People That I’ve Inspired To Do So With Their Own Art.

Is there a particular goal or mission driving your creative journey?

To Be Able To Inspire Others To Be Themselves Through Their Own Discipline Of The Arts.

What do you find most rewarding about being a creative?

Having A Way To Communicate My Emotions And Thoughts With Felling Any Judgement.
