John R Math
Profile
I am self taught and was introduced to photography and film through my Grandmother. I have had a life-long love of photography and at one point studied to become a photographer. While serving as a “helper” to various commercial photographers in New York City and Fort Lauderdale, I realized that commercial photography as a profession was very restrictive and that the “client’s” ideas would always win. I then embarked on a successful career in the real estate business. I came back to my love and now devote most of my time to photography, taking the kinds of images that I feel inspired to take. At this point in my life, I have finally found in photography what I wanted to find so many years ago – that being the freedom to express myself in any way that inspires me and not just to the wishes of some “client”.
