Series: Photographers On Etsy: Part 4
This is the fourth in a series of Photographers I will be featuring. Each of the photographers are from Etsy. Enjoy the interviews and please visit their shops.
I would like you to meet Amanda Kinghorn owner of Amanda Kinghorn Photo www.etsy.com/uk/shop/AmandaKinghornPhoto?ref=si_shop
What type of photography is your favorite and why? Landscape photography. I'm inspired by trying to capture the amazing landscapes all around me in the Scottish countryside. I particularly love long exposures, capturing the movement in water, skies etc and turning them into misty, flowing images. I also love taking images in the soft early morning light and after dusk when everything has a blue hue.
When did you first start doing photography? Photography has been a hobby for around 10 years. I started out with an old minolta film camera that belonged to my dad. It had been sitting unused for years and I decided to go to a black and white film photography class and learn how to use it properly. I only used film for a couple of years, as it became increasingly difficult to find community darkrooms.
When you're not shooting photos, how do you spend your time? Making Photo Wood blocks, selling prints and wood blocks at makers markets and art fairs, fair weather jogging!
Did you go to school to study photography? If yes, where? No. I started off attending evening classes to learn the basics, and have attended a couple of workshops, but generally I am self taught. I'd love to give-up the day job and train as a professional photographer.
How would you describe your style? calm, peaceful, traditional.
What type of camera(s) do you shoot with? Canon D60.
And now for some photos

The Interview:
What type of photography is your favorite and why? My favorite type of photography is nature photography: birds, butterflies, flowers, trees, sunsets and various animals. I love capturing nature because it is always beautiful, colorful, inspiring, and I am in awe of the sheer grandeur and vastness of the world we live in.
When did you first start doing photography? I started doing photography from a very young age, taking my mother's camera whenever I got the chance. In middle school I received a little point-and-shoot that I took everywhere with me.
When you're not shooting photos, how do you spend your time? When I'm not out taking pictures of whatever I can find or a portrait session, I am enjoying nature. I love going to the beach, kayaking, and hiking. I also love baking and watching movies.
Did you go to school to study photography? If yes, where? I studied photography at Stevenson University just last year, and plan to continue studying it in the future.
How would you describe your style? I would describe my style as full of light, soft, romantic and definitely colorful.

This is Molly Michael. Molly is the face behind The Whole Wild World www.etsy.com/shop/thewholewildworld.
The Interview:
What type of photography is your favorite and why?
Currently I am enjoying black and white photography, which is surprising because I am usually attracted to wild designs and bright colors. However, any landscape portraying this beautiful Earth is a favorite of mine.

When you're not shooting photos, how do you spend your time?
Though I always have some form of a camera with me, aside from taking photos I love to hike, bike, swim, kayak, camp, read, learn, travel, and eat (of course). Being outside and with good company is the most pleasing way to spend my time.

The only photography class I ever took was an intro class in 10th grade at my public high school. I do hope to enroll in a club or class this summer!

How would you describe your style?
Straightforward and simple. When it comes to nature you don’t have to look hard for something beautiful. If I see something I find captivating I point and shoot. Rather than creating a scene, I appreciate what is already present.
