Photo Collage Maker

How does this collage represent my identity?
   This collage represents my identity because all the pictures sum up what I am like as a person and what i like to do. Most of the pictures in this collage are all taken outside, which is where I love to be, whether it is at the beach, on the lake, at the mountains or just outside in my own backyard. I grew up with two older brothers and no sisters ( picture in top right ) and I grew up around sports and activities my brothers loved doing which is why I love to fish, go shooting, and play soccer. From the time I was two I was on my first soccer team, of course it was nothing serious at that time but as I got older and better I went on to different levels of competition for soccer and ended up having many collage offers and played collage soccer my first semester at Lenoir-Rhyne University. However I ended up not liking the school as much as I thought I would and transferred here to UNCC. My family is very close, we all like to hangout together and go on trips to the beach and mountains, my brother is my best friend (picture on top in the middle) and I rely on him more than anyone I know. We grew up going to a church that my parents have been a part of since they got married, and have a really strong faith, my faith is what gets me through everything and I don't know where my family would be without God.  My mom went to Duke University so we are HUGE Duke fans, theres not one thing Carolina Blue that we don't hate. Haha. My friends are extremely important to me and I really don't know what I would do without them, were all really close and even though we all split off to go to different collages we all stay in close touch. Last but not least are my animals, I have a huge passion for animals, any kind. I love my puppies more than anything and wouldn't be able to live without them, Im hoping to do something in my future career that deals with animals.

What is the link between images and identity?
I think there is a huge like between images and identity, many people create or take pictures just to show that identity. Most pictures show who you are because you take that picture when your doing the things you love to be doing. If you didn't care so much about what you were doing then you wouldn't want pictures to be taken of them. I think the correlation is extremely strong in my case because all the pictures I have are of my doing the things I enjoy doing such as family, friends, faith, soccer, animals, food.
