Spotlight on Allyson Puckett, eighth grade
Admiral Farragut Academy, St. Petersburg
Allyson on Allyson ...
My name is Allyson Puckett. I am 13 years old and was born in St. Petersburg, Florida, where I currently attend Admiral Farragut Academy.
I became interested in photography about two years ago when my father gave me my first camera, and I haven't put it down since. I am mostly into nature photography because I believe people don't fully stop to enjoy the beauty of nature, and I feel it's my job to capture it for them to see. I also enjoy writing. The person who inspired me to write better is Mrs. Ewing, my English teacher.
I hope to take creative writing and photography classes in the future. I will keep writing and taking pictures because these things inspire me. I hope everyone enjoys my photos!
