Annette Batista

I was born in Habana, Cuba and moved with my family at the tender age of six, to Perth Amboy, New Jersey where I lived with my maternal grandparents until I was 19.

My love for photography began as a small child at the age of 3 in Habana, Cuba.  It was passed down from my maternal grandfather who was an avid photographer himself. My grandfather would supply me with all the film I could use to encourage me to take all the photos my heart desired. He also gave me solid and loving advice on the best methods to shoot a picture and I eagerly absorbed his knowledge like a sponge.

My knowledge of lighting and angles comes not only from the lessons of My grandfather, but in the lessons I learned as a technician and director/producer for several television news stations.
