ANSAROV's blog

This blog was created to foster mentorship through the life experiences and inspirations of Commercial, Fine Art and Portrait photographer Aaron Ansarov. Ansarov can best be described as a "passionate creative." When not on assignment in south Florida, Aaron can be found at the Art Institute of Ft Lauderdale working on his degree in Advertising or spending time with his wife, baby daughter, newborn son and 10 year old son. Ansarov also enjoys the accomplishments of home repairs and his garden.

Richard Avedon

There is a quote that is so inspiring to me it truly describes who I am in my life.

"If a day goes by without my doing something related to photography, it's as though I've neglected something essential to my existence, as though I had forgotten to wake up."    - Richard Avedon
