Back in early 2009 Katriena Emmanuel found herself in a paralegal job, completely uninspired and with a sad lookout on life. That's when she discovered photography. "It was at a time when I was feeling really depressed in my then paralegal job, just feeling like there was no purpose and wanting to work in a field where I could be creative, so I picked up my husband's DSLR camera and began learning how to use it and practicing taking friends' portraits and I just fell in love with how instant it was to create a beautiful image, as opposed to how long it would take me to paint one," Katriena tells us.
