Available to hire
Hello, I’m Andrew J. Camel, a 25-year-old professional photographer, dedicated entrepreneur, and proud member of the Florida State Guard. My journey in photography and filmmaking began at the age of thirteen, driven by a passion for capturing moments and telling stories. Through self-teaching and guidance from mentors, I mastered the art of DSLR photography, leveraging online resources like YouTube to refine my skills.
Today, I’m the founder of Young Wild Dreams, leading a team of creatives in delivering exceptional visual content. My vision extends beyond photography; I aspire to build Young Wild Dreams into a global platform for passionate entrepreneurs and creatives, offering support, resources, and opportunities for growth. My twin brother and I are passionate about filmmaking and aim to create feature films and in-house projects.
