Photography

The work I most naturally return to.

Photography has been with me for a long time. It remains the place where attention, memory, and beauty come together most naturally.

A Personal Note

It started with a camera instead of a sketchbook.

In sixth grade, I was given an art assignment to draw what I saw on a trip with my father. Instead, I took photographs with a Kodak 110 camera. Looking back, that small decision feels like the beginning of something that never really left me.

What draws me in

Place, texture, atmosphere

I am often drawn to landscapes, architecture, travel, and the visual character of specific places.

Why it matters

A way of slowing down

Photography reminds me to pay attention. It invites patience, curiosity, and gratitude for what is right in front of me.
