Hmmphotography

At the age of 9, my father allowed me to take my 1st pictures using his camera, a Zeiss-Ikon that used 120 mm b&w film. When I was 14 years old I started to be more interested in photography (mostly landscape) and through a friend's father I learned to process b&w film and print my own pictures at his professional lab. At 15, a friend's brother got married and asked me to take his wedding pictures, which he paid me for; I consider this to be my 1st professional assignment.
