Eden Hensley (edenhensley)'s popular Portfolio photosI've always had an eye for capturing the moment. My parents recognized my creativity and fostered it with art classes at the De Young Museum. When I was 12, my parents gave me another medium to experiment with - film. I then spent summers across the way at the Academy of Science being inspired and taught by local photographers, who challenged us to view photography as an art and not a science. Under their guidance and my mother's artistic eye, I quickly traded my first camera - a Kodak Instamatic 110 - for a Canon AE-1 SLR.
In 2001, I began dabbling with digital photography with another Kodak, the DC4800. I finally retired my Canon AE-1 in 2004, and now shoot digital exclusively with a Canon EOS 30D DSLR. I enjoy the freedom that comes with the digital medium particularly the ability to experiment with angles, motion and lighting and get immediate feedback. With each shot, I strive to tell a story, and whenever possible work with existing light rather than flash to capture candids.
