Hi, I’m Cole Binder
 
Hi! I'm Cole, a 15 year old photographer. I've been taking pictures for years, ever since I got a point-and-shoot camera for Christmas one year.
I love photography. As I mentioned above, I got a point-and-shoot camera for Christmas years ago. I took a ton of photos on that camera. Once got to try my mom's DSLR with a 75-300mm lens to look at a mountain goat, I could not go back. My mom taught me how to use her camera, and I took photos on it for a couple years sharing with her. Then I got a 70-200mm lens. That lens changed my photography forever. It was so sharp and clean and amazing, and I started to take photography more seriously. I took photos of animals and sports for a while, and I was having a lot of fun, but I wasn't the very good yet. That was when I got a book. It was a book about photography techniques, and I read it in only one day. That book improved my photography by so much that I got seven more books by the same author. I read in all of the books that the number one way I could improve my photography was to start editing my photos, so I got Lightroom and Photoshop, and started editing. My photos became sharper, cleaner, and they all had better light because I could edit the light. I have taken thousands of photos, edited hundreds, and loved all of it. All of these things added up to where I am today. Today I am a Minnesota based photographer who shoots wildlife, sports, travel, landscape, and portraits.
