I will evaluate success based on how well I capture the true vibe of fishing. Even if there are no catches, I can still work with the natural light and get good images of tackle boxes, the poles, and my family casting out their lines.

Cristina Mittermeier
-Cristina is a wildlife and humanities photographer who travels to remote locations to show natural wildlife as well as human's interactions with nature. She often captures movement of these animals, incorporating the flow of water to draw the viewer's eyes.
-This type of work is important to my passion project because I'd like to utilize some of her techniques in creating an active shot. Obviously I will not be sticking my camera underwater, but I do like the action she implements. The focus on wildlife is similar to my passion project because I will have to be among nature to successfully photograph the fish.

Why are you passionate about this project?
I am passionate about the activity of fishing because there are always many things to learn, and is always a different experience each time. I feel connected to nature, and there's always an anticipation in the air.

Where did you first see/hear about this type of work?
I first began fishing with my dad when I was very young. He'd take us all out on fishing trips, anywhere he could, from the bay to our neighbor's pond. There's always the great satisfaction of a successful trip, with good catches.

What brings you joy/happiness about this project?
What brings me happiness about fishing is the variability of it and the unexpected happening. You never know whether it'll be a good day, a bad day, or find something completely surprising. Sometimes, despite bringing all the right gear, hitting the best spots, and taking time, there's still no catch. These days can be disappointing, but it makes the days where the fish are biting so much better. Getting a good fight to reel in a big fish makes it so gratifying, knowing that effort was put in to get there.

I will "engage and persist" through the entirety of this project in order to make it my best work. I'd like to photograph whatever catch I can get and show the movement of the fish and water, but I understand it might take several tries.

Fishing is a hobby I have had since I was a little girl. I first got into fishing because of my dad, and have continued to do it because it brings me peacefulness.
