Episode 104 – Unstoppable Photographic Storyteller with Marlana Semenza

Episode 104 – Unstoppable Photographic Storyteller with Marlana Semenza

Talk about a particular event shaping your life, while earning a degree in photography, Marlana Semenza stepped onto a tour bus and began an adventure and a career. In this Unstoppable Mindset episode, you get to hear from Marlana about how she was hired by WWE as a photographer and suddenly found herself on a bus going to different wrestling events as a photographer. She always liked the camera and taking pictures, but with her new WWE, (World Wrestling Entertainment), a position she took her dreams to a whole new level.

On this episode we get to experience from Marlana her many adventures and experiences not only just taking pictures, but also how she evolved her camera knowledge into telling visual stories.

For me, this episode is extremely fascinating since, as a blind person, I don’t really do pictures. However, Marlena’s exciting and commitment rub off and I very much enjoyed hearing what she has to say. I hope you do as well.
