Although I’m a multimedia journalist, I’m predominantly more of a video/film journalist and writer. But of course, I was more than happy when Canon wanted to feature me as one of a few photojournalists they were highlighting in an article titled ‘Uncovering Photojournalism Moments‘ on their Snapshot website. And what a coincidence that I use a Canon too! Haha!
