It all started when…
My photography teacher in High School told me, "...your photos are special; they stand out, and they speak words to the viewer - I like what I see, don't you ever put the camera down!" From that moment on, and just 16 years old, with my Fujifilm camera in hand - I felt that I could see the world through a lens better than I could without a lens. It is something only another passionate photographer can fully understand. My preferred method was shooting in black and white film - mainly people rather than objects because people have emotions. I wanted to connect to those emotions as honestly as possible.
I continued photography mainly as a passionate hobby for many years afterward, never putting down my camera for too long - my instincts naturally drew me back to it! While working on my Graduate Degree in the United States, I was amazed by how often my camera would distract me from my studies. At some point during my education, it struck me that I should "do what I love and let whatever else follow." I am happy to say it's been my motto since, and here I am today - ready to be your photographer! Let's create art together!
