how he discovered his passion for photography.

This is Razi’s story:

Razi was born in Aceh Pidie, on October 20, 1989. His full name is Fachrur Razi, and today he is a professional wedding photographer.

Razi’s life was moulded much around the cultural environment in Pidie. Initially, Razi studied at the Faculty of Dentistry in Aceh, but he did not feel at ease in this environment, nor did he feel proud of his profession, even though a profession as a dentist is considered a very prestigious profession in Aceh.

But Razi felt uneasy with his choice of profession and being born the son of a photographer, Razi felt very drawn to photography and believed that being a photographer was definitely a better choice for him. To Razi, it just felt “right”!

Razi took the decision to dig in and start a career in photography in 2009. He began his career by studying many books on photography. He felt very drawn toward wedding photography so this was the subject around which most of the books revolved.

He began his career with the very thing that is full of risks, namely a direct leap into the world of wedding photography in 2010 at a luxury hotel in the region of Banda Aceh at the wedding of his friend, armed only with a toolset that consisted of a Nikon D70 camera and available light at the venue.

It turned out that this was a real challenge as well as a passion for him, and today he continues to work to produce spectacular work within the photographic community.

According to Razi, the success of a person’s work can be measured by how and how much expertise we have to offer to be of benefit to the wider community.

In life, our profession should also be our passion, on par with loving your loved ones, loving your life and yourself. Only in this way can we work and change a hobby into a full-time profession.

Today Razi is a leader of a Photographic Community in Aceh Pidie. The purpose of his creating an account on steemit is so that he can share tips in the world of photography and learn from those that are more experienced than himself.
