About me
I came to photography from another creative field. With a background in advertising and PR, I spent time working in structured environments — but photography gave me something I deeply value: freedom. Freedom of movement, freedom of choice, and freedom in creativity. It allows me to work in a way that feels honest and aligned with who I am.

My journey as a photographer
My journey began in a very simple way — with a phone camera always in my hands. I loved noticing light, people, and fleeting moments, capturing everyday life as it unfolded. Later, I discovered film photography, which quickly became something very personal to me. Shooting on film taught me to slow down, observe more carefully, and focus on atmosphere rather than perfection. Even now, I mostly photograph on film for myself, drawn to its texture, softness, and emotional depth. Eventually, I picked up a professional camera, but my way of seeing was already shaped — attentive, patient, and intentional. That foundation continues to influence how I photograph today.
Why Weddings
For a while, I explored different types of photography — individual sessions, couples, and families — while searching for what truly resonated. Everything changed after my first City Hall wedding. From that moment, I knew this was the kind of work I wanted to do. Wedding photography became a space where I feel fully engaged and inspired — something I never have to force myself into. I’m happy to prepare carefully, to stay up late editing, and to give each story the time it deserves.
What inspires me most is people. I love meeting couples with different backgrounds, personalities, and stories. Being trusted to document such an important day feels meaningful to me. When I photograph a wedding, I know I’m helping preserve a story that will be returned to years from now — a way to remember not only how the day looked, but how it truly felt.


Working With Couples
When working with couples, I take a thoughtful and respectful approach. I never impose my vision or decide for them. I listen first. I believe every couple is different, and their wedding story should reflect who they are. Some prefer calm, composed portraits with subtle emotion, while others want expressive, emotional images filled with movement and feeling. My role is to understand those differences and photograph each couple in a way that feels natural and true to them.
Style & Philosophy
My style is best described as editorial with a natural approach. I focus on elegant composition, true-to-life colors, and natural movement. I want the images to feel refined yet honest — photographs that remain meaningful over time and bring you back to that day with warmth and clarity.
