"Photographer-In-Training" By Livia Alonzi
“Livia, look over here!” “Guarda qui, Livia!” “Smile!” Being an only child, photographs were very common in my household, and I often found myself the subject of them. Every single move of mine was documented. My first steps? Yep. My first time eating ice cream? Yessiree. Taking a bath? You can bet on it! Photography was never a foreign concept to me, and it seemed like everyone I knew had a camera, whether it was a fancy one from Canon or just a regular digital one. It was only when my mom lent me her little silver camera, one I could call my “own”, that I picked up my love for photography and finally graduated from being the documented to the documenter.
