As a photographer, my primary goal is to capture life in the moment—without extensive planning or staging. My passion is driven by spontaneous discovery. The images I value most are those that compelled me to pause or abruptly turn the car around. It could be a building I've seen countless times, but at that instant, the subject, light and clouds align perfectly, or perhaps it’s people going about their daily routines, or everyday objects seen from a fresh perspective.
Like many in my profession, I perceive the world as a collection of still images. I believe our memories function similarly. When we reflect on our lives, we don't always see those experiences as a fully realized cinéma vérité film, but as individual frames lingering long enough to elicit a smile or a whimper.
In my world, a captivating image embodies an unexpected angle, fascinating imperfection, and/or a delightful surprise—just like life itself.
