Hello, my name is Forrest Sargent. I have autism. I use a letter board to communicate. I am 19 years old. I am a photographer. I like to take pictures of nature. I sell my photos. I love taking photos because I can make something beautiful; I am an artist. I think photography is the loveliest art because it shows the truth. It shows the secret beauty in things. Taking pictures, I need to find the hidden light in everything. I want people to get pleasure and reach my mind from my photos.

I was born in Tokyo, Japan. I lived there for three years. I became autistic when we moved back to Seattle. It was terrible, and I couldn’t talk or do this. I was not happy. I lived at home and acted crazy. Now I live at Fircrest. I go home and see mom and dad lots. Now I can talk with a letter board and I feel much better. I have friends and I don’t scare people anymore. I will get better and have a relaxing life. I know a lot and I want to share it. Visit Forrest’s website for more information about his work: http://www.sargentstudios.org.

Forrest is a gifted photographer
