Budding photographer turns a robbery into an opportunity

Miramonte senior Nejla Ackdoe-Pagey has been a photographer since she was little, using her dad's old Canon cameras and parents' phones to capture every detail of family trips.
"I got my own Canon camera at age 11 and continued to take photos around the world, hoping to preserve the wonderful memories," she said. Ackdoe-Pagey turned her love of photography into a way to express herself artistically and capture the beauty of nature from each place she visited. She wants to pursue a career as an environmental photojournalist, but a recent car robbery of some of her coveted camera equipment made her change course.
Ackdoe-Pagey decided to sell travel postcards as a way to earn money to replace the items that were stolen, with her top priority being to buy a brand new camera. "As an avid hiker, experienced traveler, passionate historian, language-lover, seasoned artist, and a sustainability advocate who is just getting started, I want to use the power of photography to make a difference," she said.
