BIOGRAPHY

Photography has always been my deepest passion for as long as I can remember. Getting my first film camera at the age 12, I have been capturing images ever since. Freezing a moment in time that will never happen again, capturing that feeling, is what drove me to photography. It is my love. What inspires me first is my subject. Whether it's a person, a flower or building, I get inspired by them. How the light hits them, the shadows they cast. That is mainly where I get my inspiration, when I'm photographing people, I like to add a bit of them in my images, the feeling I get from them. What I like to photograph most is people. Portraits, fashion, beauty, I love the details in a face, in the eyes. I have many favorite photographers. To name a few, Ellen Von Unwerth, Craig McDean, Steven Meisel, Camilla Akrans, Chen Man, Katja Rahlwes, Mario Testino, Peter lindbergh, Solve Sundsbo, Mert and Marcus, Karl Lagerfeld, and so many more.
