Bright Future

Tommy Wakefield says of himself and his love of photography, "I grew up in a small tourist town in South Haven, Mich., along Lake Michigan. I moved to California for college and have made this my home since graduating. I absolutely love the variety of seasons and landscapes that can be found here. My interest in photography started when I was only 12. I received my first camera when I was 13. It was a 4 megapixel Nikon Cookpix point and shoot. When I was in high school my uncle gave me my first DSLR. Ever since then I've been ceaselessly learning the art of photography and I feel like I'm only beginning to learn. My favorite photography subject is landscapes. I love capturing a whole moment with a timelapse and not limiting myself to just one frozen frame. It's always been my passion to capture the ever changing canvas of creation."

Please join us at Gallery 'N' Gifts First Friday, 100 W. Tehachapi Blvd. and enjoy Tommy's wonderful photography Jan. 3 from 5 to 8 p.m.
