The Story
I started photography driven by a deep curiosity about the technical aspects of a camera and a fascination with how shutter speed, aperture, and lighting could bring to life the beauty I see in the world. I also have tremendous passion on how a simple arrangement of the furniture or decorations in a room can completely shift the mood of a room and create a sense of peace. If you're wondering, I designed the entire studio from scratch by myself. It’s this same love for simplicity that I bring to my art. I embrace the concept of minimalism in my photography, allowing the beauty of your moments to last forever, without distractions. When you hang a piece of my portrait art in your home, it’s not just another decoration—it’s love, floating gently in the air, serving as a quiet reminder of what truly matters.
