About me

Beyond Photography: I am an image maker.

Imagine a painter—but instead of oils and canvas, I use a camera, digital tools, and light itself as my brushes. Each piece I create is not just a photograph—it’s an image, crafted with intention, shaped by emotion, and born from a deep artistic inquiry.My work isn’t about recording what’s there.It’s about transforming what’s seen into what’s felt. Roland Barthes once challenged us to move beyond mere technical reproduction and surface appearances. I accept that challenge with every image I make:”…to go beyond the anecdotal and the technical reproduction of the physical appearance…”

Each print is a visual dialogue—a tension between presence and absence, between silence and light.Looking to bring a piece into your space?Visit the Contact page. Let’s start a conversation and find the work that speaks to your story.
