I started photography as a hobbyist, merely playing around with a camera my father bought me, however it quickly moved from playing around, to being a serious passion. Spending countless hours watching, reading, researching, experimenting and practicing, just to be able to acquire as much knowledge about, and trying to be the best at, the art form. I thoroughly enjoy photography, but not only does it bring me joy, it allows me to be able to express myself artistically. I love being artsy (inside story, I'm also a graphic designer).

 

I'm all about attention to detail and trying to be unique whenever I capture an image. I believe every moment, object, etc, can be captured from several vantage points, and i'm looking for the most unique and impactful ones.

I'm also a very jovial person, always trying to make people feel happy and comfortable and I take the same approach to my photography (I want to help bring out and capture the best expressions).

 

My Work Philosophy

I have a creative and professional approach to my work. Whether it's wedding photography, engagement photography or  portrait photography, my mindset is to ensure the aforementioned attributes come to the fore. I equally believe in delivering high quality photographs, hence I make every effort to attain and maintain this standard.

My desire is that my images will surpass my clients expectations, and if looked at 10 years down the road, they will emit the same emotions as the day they were captured.
