Zenfolio and taking the leap
Photography, for me, is a hobby verging on a passion; with most of my pleasure coming from shooting at gigs. I get to hear good music, and I get to hone my skills – not a bad life really. I’m also a system administrator, with the ability to write code in a variety of languages,…
