A non-commercial photographer. My name is Dave, I am 35 years old and a Vietnamese American. Currently I am photographing around the Minneapolis - Saint Paul area and it's suburb.

I photograph everything. Portraits, couples, cars, skyscrapers, landscape, animals, macro and etc. Aside from weddings, you can name it, I probably do it all. I do not do weddings because of my anxiety, even if it is a photo booth.

I want to grow out of the "hobbyist" state and eventually shoot commercially and professionally, for now I will remain non-commercial. The only thing holding me back from going professional is because I am highly introverted, I am definitely not a people person and would have severe anxiety photographing people I do not know well.

I've been on and off in doing photography since I bought my first "professional" camera in 2009. Since the summer of 2023, I have realized photography is what I truly want to do in life and will no longer take "breaks" because it hinders my growth and decrease my accumulated skill set.
