Our photographer Yanique Brooks was born in St. Thomas USVI and lived in West Palm Beach, FL. She graduated from the University of Central Florida in 2019 with a degree in Interdisciplinary Studies and is currently working on becoming a registered behavior technician, with the future hope of becoming a speech language pathologist.
Photography, art, and making music are a few of her favorite things to do in her spare time. Brooks has been doing photography since 2011 and her favorite thing to take pictures of is the beach, or anything during the sunrise. Everything is just so perfect at sunrise so she believes it is the best time to shoot.
A quote she likes to live by is: “Don’t try to be like me. Be better than me.” – Florence Joyner
