Photography – Pittsburgh

My name is Shay Waters I am currently studying at The Art Institute of Pittsburgh and graduating December 14, 2017. Photography can be very powerful when it’s presented symbolically. From a very early age I realized that I had boxes filled with photos. They made me curious about what’s actually out there. Many of them captured moments of travels with my Godmother. There was something magical about the noise of the winding and the click of the button that drew me in to the moment. Photography could be a personal statement that reflected my style and a point of view. It was at that point that I fell in love with photography and decided to do it for the rest of my life. I enjoy exploring all types of images but I lean towards editorial, fine art and conceptual photography. I play with different lighting techniques, consider the importance of locations, and explore different subject matter. I am driven by my emotions and experiences to make my work. This is what connects all my photographs together.
