Congratulations to our photographer of the week, L Congratulations to our photographer of the week, Lucian Staite! He is 15, and from Coventry, Britain.

Lucien decided to pick up a camera as a new hobby and form of self-expression. He hopes to form his own community of photography lovers in the future. 

To get this shot, Lucien had to make a quick decision.

“I saw trains coming across a bridge, thought of the shot, ran home to collect my equipment, and took the shot and posted later that day,” he said.

We love your work, Lucien; keep it up!

Congratulations to our photographer of the week, T Congratulations to our photographer of the week, Tralen Hardnett!! Tralen is 22 and lives in Atlanta.

Tralen’s love for photography comes from the feeling he gets when he captures a moment in time with his camera: “I took up photography seriously my freshman year of college as a creative outlet and new hobby for my social media. I quickly fell in love with the happiness and amazement that could come from taking a really nice photo of someone or somewhere, so it’s now become one of my favorite things to do.”

Congratulations, Tralen!!! We wish you success in your budding career and hope you can inspire people through the moments in time you capture with your lens.

Congratulations to Marc Geremia for being our phot Congratulations to Marc Geremia for being our photographer of the week! He's 23, from Melbourne, Australia. His photographer journey began as a hobby.
.
“I became a photographer because I was really interested in how moments can be captured and share my perspective. At first, I started photography as a hobby to pass some time as I was not able to work during COVID. Finding Melbourne- (local-) based photographers like 7th era, Northborders, Hayden and Limon really inspired me. So I went out and bought myself a camera and decided to give it a go”

We love your photography and hard work. Congrats on your win this week!

Congratulations to our photographer of the week, J Congratulations to our photographer of the week, Joe Lombardi!!! Joe is 23 and lives in his hometown of Melbourne, Australia.

Joe started getting into photography a little over three years ago: “My friends bought me a camera for my 21st birthday.” This gift has allowed Joe to find his true passion and capture the world around him. Joe has been able to capture breathtaking landscapes around Melbourne and other Australian cities. His camera has also allowed him to capture the social movement of 2020 Black Lives Matter.

Joe’s photography has always been driven by hard work and determination. He stands by the motto, “Always take an opportunity when you are given it.” He believes that as a young photographer starting out this is the best thing to live by because you never know what will come out of an opportunity.

He has ambitions to continue his photography career and one day to take his passions and turn it into a career. ”2020 has allowed me to evaluate what I want to do with my life and photography is something I love and gives me drive.”

Congratulations again, Joe. Bokeh Focus is happy you’ve been able to find your love and passion for photography. We can’t wait to see the journey it takes you on.
