MY VISION
I want my photography to be a tribute to those who have held onto their identity through time, standing resilient against the tide of change.
From the tribes of Ethiopia’s Omo Valley to the Mentawai people of Indonesia, or Vietnam I don’t seek just to capture their image, but to honor their spirit. Each encounter is a story waiting to be told, an intimate exchange built on trust, patience, and respect.
Photographs are more than portraits. They are an invitation— to witness, to appreciate, and to preserve.
