About Derrick
Born and raised in Baltimore, his passion for Photography started when he was in high school but he took it more seriously in college when he enrolled in a digital photography class and it open his eyes to photography even more and haven't looked back since. Derrick purchased his first camera during that time period and later started using his iPod as another camera source to take pictures just because it's easy, convenient, and with the increase of technology with camera usage. There's no limitations on being creative.
Artist Statement
They say art imitates life, he has a great eye in capturing my surroundings, his photos imitate his surroundings. What Derrick captures in the moment, he brings it to life. The photos he captures are symbolical and metaphorical because they represent the essence of life.
Most of what he captures is objects and things because they are just as important as people are when it comes to photographing subjects. There's no limitations on what he doesn't capture. It's not about where you create your art, it's about the art you create. Create What Can Be Manifest.
