Renée Tymn’s Experience

Photographer (Owner)

Vishuddha Photography

(Photography industry)

April 2007 — Present (2 years 4 months)

The Vishuddha (fifth/throat) chakra is associated with creativity, communication, and self-expression. Photography is a medium that allows me to fulfill a basic need to express my creative passions. I love finding new ways of seeing the world around me through the lens, and I especially love to use my camera to connect with people.
