E. S. Fetty Photography: Make Way

Background

I've always been rather intrigued with photographs. Photos could alway's take me places that I could never go; and still today they do. Images hold such a powerful force in society today. Without them, could you possibly imagine a newspaper or magazine?

I began to really grow serious about photography my Junior year in high school. I had recieved my first camera for Christmas the year before, but had not really put much energy into it until then. I attended Asbury College in Wilmore, KY during my first year of college where I served as photo editor of the school paper. Starting in the fall semester of 2008 I began attending Kent State University where I am part of their photojournalism program. During the summer and while on breaks, I work as a part-time photographer for The Alliance Review, the local newspaper from my hometown of Alliance, Ohio. I really enjoy my time there and have graciously been given the opportunity to practice and advance my photography skills through my work for them.

The photos below and in the blog archive have been taken for various photo classes, The Alliance Review, The Asbury Collegian, and for my own enjoyment. I hope that you like them!

Make Way

Thie photo above made the front page feature photo in today's Alliance Review. The other two photos were in as well. These photos were taken at the Louisville Fire Department truck dedication. The LFD just purchased a new truck with the help of a grant and so they had a little dedication ceremony in honor of it. I encourage you all to go to the Alliance Review web page and read the story to understand a little more about it. There is a link on the right side of this page. Just click on it and it will take you right to the site.
