  Outside of school, Branciforte found her passion in photography. Not wanting to be in front of the camera, she started taking pictures of friends and family as a hobby, but she now has a small side business. 

  “[The best part of photography is] finding the beauty and uniqueness of each of my subjects so that each photo shoot is individualized,” Branciforte said.

  Even though she has done many photoshoots of senior photos and engagement pictures, Branciforte’s favorite photo she has taken is of a calf at Deerfield Farm in Durham. She also loves landscape photography.

  Branciforte’s advice for young people is, “Relax; take a deep breath, everything will work out just fine.”
