A little bit about myself

Hello, and welcome to The Natural Snap Photography!

I’m Caleb Awalt, the man behind the lens here. I’m an experienced photographer who is currently based in Atlanta, Georgia.

Just over a decade ago I began photographing with a relative’s camera and fell in love with photographing people and animals. That sparked the joy of photography for me and I soon got my own camera and began experimenting. In late 2012, I met a professional photographer who liked my “eye” for photos but told me that my work needed improvement and he would like me to work with him under an apprenticeship. I continued working with him for the next three and a half years learning under him and applying myself to the fullest. My work quickly became something I was proud of and felt that I could start calling myself a photographer.

I stopped working with that photographer in 2016 and continued photographing for a little while longer and then I discovered the joys of film photography. Was given my first film camera by a friend who no longer had any use for it and I started taking hundreds of analog photos, truly learning and understanding photography for what it truly is and what it used to be.

And then of course, the year 2020 happened. I don’t think I need to go into any details as we all remember that year incredibly well. Well, most of it. Needless to say, I stopped photographing until recently when I decided I’d been away from my passion of photographing for far too long.

My new focus is entirely on portrait and headshot photos in both digital and film.
