The Art of Photography, Crafted by Anna G.
Hello
My name is Anna,
From a young age I have always felt inspired by art, wether it is found in architecture, edible creations or just a drop of water falling down a leaf in after a rainy day. As a German Ecuadorian woman with Spanisch heritage, I have seen and experienced two very different parts of the World (3 with America). I love historic cities, high fashion and bright and springlike colors. I hope you enjoy my little sample of how I view the world, and get to experience a deeper feeling through the storytelling of my images.

Perservierance is a strong word to express my passage back to Germany. In the year 2003 my Mother remaried and our family was forced to leave my Home Country of Germany and moved to the United States of America. In California, I had to began learning English for the very first time at the age of 12 and catch up to my Classmates. By the age of 12.5 I was top of my class and fluent in the English language. My knowlegde of the Spanish language helped me join the other kids and learn quickly through the provided translator. In 2011 I finished my High School Diploma and was aware that I would be soon left to support myself at a young age. I enrolled in My Studies began in the year 2012 after finishing a Certified Training as Medical Assistant, which I paid off entirely with my own labor to ensure myself a safetynet in the Business world. In 2012 I moved to SF region and began College. Why did I graduate in June of 2019? Unfortunetly in the State of California the Financial aid is extremely difficult to obtain. I became a College Student in the year 2012 but it was financially difficult. I usually worked Part to Full Time trying to afford accomodation without any financial assistance at the age of 19 years. Because College fees were hard to pay I usually only took 1-2 Courses to stay enrolled and Always prioritized work. I told myself, if i stay enrolled I wont drop out and will finish one day. The 5+ Waiting Period: Unfortunately I had to wait to be able to transfer to a College that could offer me a Bachelors degree and Financial aid till the age of 25 years old because of California Laws, you were not demed Independent even if you worked and lived alone and received no financial assistance from Family. Finally at the age of 25 I could finally Transfer to another more Costly University to finish my Bachelors Degree and apply for financial aid. There I finally continued my studies after many patient and diligent years. I entered the Honoroll on my first semester and graduated with an end Note of 3,0 or in Germany a 2.
