Hi!,

First off, I wanna say thanks for coming to this page (whether by accident or purpose).

My names Alexander Tat. I'm the owner and photographer of TICTATTOE. I started my college career in Santa Clara Mission College, and moved to Hult International Business School where I graduated with a degree in Business Management focusing on Human Resources and Business Development. I love this path I am on because I’ve developed a desire to understand our human inclinations and help others grow through our understanding of it.

My love for photography was first sparked when I was in middle school. My father had just gotten a new Nikon D40 camera with a 18mm-55mm kit lens. What also kindled the flames was my love for cars. I was always so amazed by automotive photography. “A super defined car with a blurred background”. Another influence was my high school photography teacher; Mr. Ian Danielson (thanks Mr. Danielson).

I’d be so bold as to say, he was one of the best teachers ever. He taught us photography from the ground up. From the basics like the 1/3 rule, to how to develop film. Being able to learn the history of how it started and how much consideration it took for each photo taken gave me a deeper appreciation for each photo that is “developed” now.

Lastly but not least, the greatest influence, the one who gave me this amazing passion; God The Father. Without him, I would not have this passion. He’s given me an opportunity to capture a small glimpse of the beauty that He sees in His creation. I would not be who I am now if it weren't for Him. I'm a Son of God first, all else comes second. :)
