Ding Zhou

I’m an American advanced amateur portrait, studio, and travel photographer. I have lived and worked in Beijing, China for many years. I especially like portrait photography. I am studying at Beijing Center of Photography under the instruction of Lance Lee.

I am also a member of fengniao.com Chinese amateur photography website. I enjoy participating in fengniao.com shoots such as the Cherry Blossom Festival in Beijing.

I speak English and oral Chinese. I cannot read Chinese characters, but I can communicate orally and in text messages and email using pin yin.

I have used Adobe Photoshop for many years, beginning with Photoshop 4. I currently use CS5 Extended. I now often use Adobe Lightroom 3.

I use a Nikon D300 camera and Nikon, Tokina, and Sigma lenses.
