Vilhjálmur Ingi Vilhjálmsson, Reykjavík Member Since August 2007 Artist Statement I am a graphic designer from Reykjavík, Iceland. Photography is something that I recently discovered for myself after being on the sidelines for many years as an admirer of other people´s work. I think that both my design education and my work as a graphic designer has given me a good basis for photography as well as photomanipulation. My first camera was a Canon 350D that I bought for myself in 2006. I soon discovered that I had a real passion for taking pictures and that it was a great combination for my other passion which is graphic design. I now have the Canon 40D and a lens set up that I´m happy with (for now) and I am eagerly taking my next steps in the world of digital photography.
