Why I Want To Become A Forensic Photographer

¨Mr. Green committed murder in the pub with a bottle¨. If you like to solve mysteries, then you might find this sentence familiar. I always liked to play the game Clue because I get to solve mysteries. I want to be able to use my talent of solving mysteries in a career, and becoming a forensic scientist seems to be the perfect choice. After researching important information , such as the work environment skills required, the level of education needed, the salary and job outlook, I find myself to be highly qualified for an upcoming career in forensic science.

Little kids everywhere have imagined what they will become as they grow up; a doctor, a musician, a teacher. As an eighth grader, I’ve been given the opportunity to look in-depth at what careers I should consider. Through surveys I’ve learned about my more prominent skills, which has led me to the discovery of paths I should take as I draw closer to high school. As I continue to see my results and take a deeper look at my possible plan for the future, I hope to learn more about myself, discovering a career choice I haven’t considered before, and end up with a better understanding of who I want to be.

Ever since I was a little girl I can remember have an interest in the world of Forensics and Biology. I remember running outside to examine the different types of dirt and the hungry ants and mosquitos that always seem to flock to children when they play outside, I remember sitting in front of the television rapt with attention as Gary Sinise and David Caruso would solve countless crimes every Thursday night. At the time, these interests were just distractions until I could find what I really wanted to be when I grew up but now that I am older I know that this is what I want to do. To me, being a forensic chemist means much more than being the cool doctor in a lab coat every Thursday, to me it is being able to help people. It is my dream to become a forensic chemist and work alongside detectives to solve crimes and to help put grieving family’s hearts at rest.

Where do I see myself in four years? I see myself graduating with the Core 40 Technical Honors diploma. Also going to college to become a Crime Scene Investigator. I 'm not really sure where I want to go yet because I haven 't really thought about it yet. I 've thought about doing other things in the criminology field but nothing else really stands out to me. I don 't know if this is what I will continue to want so maybe in those four years it will change but I 'm not really sure yet. So for now my four year plan is to go to college and take the necessary classes to become a Crime Scene Investigator.

I would like to be a Forensic Science Technician, simply because I find this kind of stuff interesting. A Forensic Science Technician does many things. Four things they do are run ballistics tests on guns to find the one used in a bank robbery; collect evidence from a crime scene to help understand the chain of events; match DNA samples to reunite a long lost child to his/her family; and solve a crime by matching fingerprints at the crime scene to a suspect. One of the top reasons I would join this career is because I want to be able to solve a crime if someone needs help. The second top reason I would join this career is because I watched CSI all the time before I got too busy with school, but I still watch

There is a lot of distorted information when it comes to watching the televisions shows on television such as CSI, Dexter, Criminal Minds, and Law and Order. In real life situations, usually the person that is investigating the crime is not the same person that does the crime lab. On televisions shows, they will only work one crime scene at a time and not many crimes that have been committed. As well the show will not show the numerous amounts of crimes that an investigator has to deal with on a day to day basis.

Confucius once said, “Choose a job you love, and you will never have to work a day in your life.” I believe in picking a career not based on the amount of money it makes, but on the passion one has for it. My dream is to become a Forensic Anthropologist. Ever since I was a little girl, I have loved reading books about the human body. This naturally lead me to watch the TV show Bones when I got older, and I realized the difference that Dr. Temperance Brennan was making in people, both living and dead, and I wanted to be able to be a voice for those who no longer have one. Forensic Anthropology is a career that allows me to take my passion for the human body, helping people, and learning about the past into a morally and intellectually satisfying

At the moment, I am still unsure of what major and career I am going to pursue. I am looking into different fields and what would interest me, and at the moment I am looking toward photography related fields. One career that I have been interested in lately is a forensic photographer, or crime scene photographer. They are called to crime scenes in order to take photographs for the law enforcement, so they can study them for future purposes. Cases can take months or even years to solve, so these photographs help preserve the original scene and evidence. Not only do they take pictures of the overall scene, but of different objects in the room or area as well to give investigating officers a feel of what happened.

I chose to discuss a wide range of careers for my project. I researched from medical to musical to find what I think are the five most interesting careers on the market today.

I would like to work with the behavioral analysis unit and work with the FBI.

While attending Stevenson I hope to gain the courage I need to break out of my shell. In doing so I will be able to converse with people without being so withdrawn and reserved. Hopefully I will also be able to make plenty of connections with people. I would also like to gain the knowledge I need for years to come after I have completed school. I chose to major in chemistry because I have always taken a liking to the sciences. Chemistry in particular was chosen because it was my favorite science class that I have taken. Right now I have decided that I want to go into the field of forensics particularly toxicology. I have researched this career and am fully prepared to obtain the skills I need for this job. The job does pay what I am looking
