ABOUT ME:
Hi! My name is Devon Jamal Wilson. I was born and raised in a small suburban city called New Jersey right next to New York all my life, whereas my roots came from my mom in Bronx, NY and my dad from Paterson, NJ. I am autistic while being on an autism spectrum since I was five years old when I got first noticed by my mom around that time. I'm also a recent graduate from Bergen Community College with an Associate's Degree in Science and Liberal Arts becoming apart of Class of 2024. When I first arrived on earth 22 years ago by god, (always sending much love to him), I began to develop my love and passion within the unique talents in the visual arts field department as a photographer, becoming a big fan of the Film and Television industries.
Back when I was a kid, I was not aware what I wanted to do for my career (because I still had many things ahead of me at the time). However fast forward to elementary and middle school, I started binge watching classic modern films and television with my family and friends as it awaken my point of view attention to how each of those different media entertainment contents are created in a realistic way through narrative, visual and on-screen platforms.
I wanted to become an actor at first when I was taking acting classes back in high school, but I shifted my gears over to photography thanks with the help of my grandfather and cousin; where it got me a chance to create and develop my own pictures and shots everywhere I go.
From watching movies throughout my life, I deeply learned being involve in a production can take a big step and shape the character of my persona as a photographer discovering more about the product at hand; using technical expertise creativity behind every picture along with great composition skills to produce and preserve images that tells its story or when to record a public live event.
