Sophia JonesParticipant<h5 class=”font_5″>Hello, my name is Sophia Jones and I’m not the type of girl that likes to talk about herself, I believe people around you know you better than yourself. My major is business management, and I would like to grow my photography business even bigger than what it is today.</h5>
<h5 class=”font_5″>First off, even though I was raised in New York City, I was born in Honolulu, Hawaii! How fun right? Unfortunately, my parents decided to move to NY when I wasn’t even a year old, bummer. That being said, Staten Island is my home town! My dad always told me that when he was taking pictures or videos of my sister and I that I would always try and grab the camera from him. I guess you could say I’ve always wanted to be a photographer!</h5>
<h5 class=”font_5″>After growing up and going through my teen years, I knew I wasn’t ready for college, but who is at 18!? I decided to join the US Navy and thank God I did. I learned so much about myself and how to be an adult. I grew up fast at just 19 years old. After boot camp, I went to Mississippi to learn my job and that’s how I met my husband! Nick and I were both lucky to be stationed in Washington state. Being that I was stationed in Washington, I also deployed to Bahrain, Japan, Qatar, Guam, and Hawaii.</h5>
<h5 class=”font_5″><span class=”wixGuard”></span>I started my photography journey in November 2017, I always loved my camera and I finally realized I can start my own business, with the enormous support of Nick. When I enrolled into school I first was studying nursing until I realized my photography business was doing way better than I thought. I changed my major to business management to get more knowledge about running my own business and to also get a job similar to what I did in the military.</h5> -

Randy ArizaParticipantBeing Born in Hawaii and now living in New York City!? What a difference right? Joining the Navy at a young age must have been the hardest, but best decision you have made. Hope nothing but the best for your husband and yourself, but also for your Photography Business!
