Photographer, traveler and a maker/creator saying hello!
Hey what's up Steemians!
I'm Tyler and I'm a photographer, traveler and a maker/creator from Chicago, Illinois.
My hobbies are all over the place. The one thing I am most passionate about is photography. I started out 10 years ago, which is crazy just thinking about it. But, I didn't take it seriously until 2012 where I started shooting photos for a nightclub here in Chicago. (btw, the best place to learn to shoot in low light. You learn real quick.) And what got me into the club scene was Trance music. ATB, Above & Beyond, Markus Schulz. Any Trance Fam here?
I currently work as a tech for a company that sells hobby sized CNC machines, laser cutters, 3D printers and their components. Designing and making stuff is another one of my hobbies.
I seem to bounce back and forth between photography and the design side. There's just something about being able to take a block of wood or metal and turn it into something you drew up into the computer. I also do a lot of personalized gifts for Etsy and friends. Always looking for ideas and motivation. But these two subjects will be what I end up posting here.
The travel bug bit me sometime early last year. I blame it on my first trip to Yosemite National Park in California. And it was all down hill from there. I'll keep the good ones for other posts so I can go deeper into they're meaning to me. Maybe I can put together tutorials / before and after processing the image.
You're welcome to check out my other photos on my IG.
