I have been into photography for around since 2009 with my first camera given to me one Christmas which was a Kodak C813, I used this camera quite often whether is was going on a family holiday or going on a school trip to the zoo. I didn't get into photography seriously until 2014 when I got my first IPhone, this was a serious bump up of image quality from my Kodak, I used my IPhone 5s as my main source of photography posting on Instagram and Facebook up until early 2016 when I was given my first DSLR a Canon 400d which was my first exposure to real photography taking it out to various places and abroad to Spain and America, right now I'm using a Canon 40d which does the job although in the near future I'm hoping to invest in a full frame body. If I'm not planning on taking my Canon and I find a great composition I will use my IPhone 7 which takes more than acceptable photos in well lit places.
