ABOUT
I’m on a journey in trying to find my voice in photography, and possibly more of myself along the way. My images aim to portray a world that I seek; one that is simple, silent and devoid of the noise that increasingly dominates our complicated lives. I like to give my subjects space for them to breathe, just like I need to find space so that my soul can breathe. Photography gives me the silence that I increasingly desire and it’s where I restore the balance.
My images are often not true interpretations of what my camera sees, but more importantly they are true interpretations of what I felt, or what I thought I was seeing. To me this is more important as it helps to enable the photographer to become a part of the photograph, and therefore reflects the photographer’s unique personality and thus helping to make images unique.
Ultimately I aim to produce images with a vision to inspire people to simplify their lives and appreciate the very few things that truly matter and bring us happiness. It’s this underlying vision that guides all the choices I make in my photography today, along with my heart.
GUIDING PRINCIPLES
1. Infuse myself within my work - Strive to transpire my emotions and mood thru the images I create, and express how I perceive the world around me.
2. Create for myself - Create images that “I” find personally satisfying
3. Strive for authenticity - Always aim to pursue authentic work that is honest and true to myself and my underlying vision. Strive to communicate ideas, messages and feelings that originated within.
4. Be an acute observer - Enter a scene with no preconceived images in mind or expectations and instead approach a scene with an open mind and be fully observant and present in the moment.
5. Shoot from my heart - Use my heart and intuition as my internal compass to guide me, not a set of “rules”.
