hi! i’m lissie, a nontraditional music lovin’ lifestyle photographer from Brooklyn. Before i could read, i was taking pictures. i’d rummage through boxes of film prints that were taken by my mother for hours on end. Around the age of 10, my father gifted me my first of many cameras. that little sony and i never looked back. for two years i attended the new school in New York City where i majored in psychology. it was there when i discovered a deeper connection to myself and what i wanted for my future. for years i tried to focus on other things, or careers that made more sense in the eyes of most. but no matter where i turned, my camera on my desk pointed right at me; i wanted to be a photographer, more than anything else in the world.
