Dylan Lynch

I got into photography because it is one of the most versatile fields of design. You’re not restricted by style, location, assignment, or circumstances. No matter where you are, great photos can be made. I have dedicated a major slice of my time to researching, reading, learning, and experiencing in every way to improve my photographic skills. After a year of reading, the next logical step was to get into school for it, so I did. This coming year will be my third year of university, but only my first in the design field, so I am very excited to get into this new experience. ArtBistro is just another way to surround myself with information, and I hope to share and learn many things through it in the future. www.dylanlynch.com
