Valentin Sawadogo is my name but I go by Thino CLoud (Valenthino coming from Valentin so giving Thino, Sawadogo meaning Cloud in my local language in Western Africa). I am currently a student at the University of Central Arkansas in Conway, AR.
COntrary to many photographers I didn't pick up a camera when I was 5 years old, instead I have always had a passion for saving memories and archiving videos, photos and every thing I could to create souvenirs for my friends. My passion for creating and saving memories led me to Photography where you could easily capture and save many moments for years to come. It's been a wild ride with Photography as a college student.
I have learned many kind of Photography but the ones I decide to stick with is the ones which involves people. Loving One on One conversation I found portrait and Headshot to be one of the directions I have chosen.
I Love People and I love the feeling I see on people faces when they see their beautiful selves. There is beauty inside each of us and as a Photographers we need to help people see it and capture and save it for now and many years to come.
