A photograph is never neutral. Each photograph embodies a way of seeing and showing the world. I'm a visually oriented-person and very much fascinated by nature. Photographing landscape allows me to render the road to the imagination, and interpret instant perceptions in a fusion - as in dreams often unreal or surreal. At other times photographs become intimate fragments of memories, symbolic representations, or emotional reflections.
In my close-up portraits, I aim to create an intimate moment that reflects the true nature of the subject. It's like seeing yourself in the mirror but with a heightened sense of awareness and authenticity. I believe that every person has a virtuousness and dignity that deserves to be celebrated, and I strive to capture these qualities in every photograph.
Whether it's through candid moments or carefully curated poses, my goal is to create a visual scheme that transcends the conventions of traditional imaging. Through my lens, I aim to tell a story that's both timeless and deeply personal.
If you're interested in commissioning a project, I'd be honored to work with you. All my portrait sessions are shot on film, giving each photograph a timeless quality and a sense of intimacy that's hard to replicate in the digital world.
Thank you for visiting, and I hope you enjoy exploring my visual journey as much as I enjoy creating it.
