What do you love about your job?

What I love most about photography is the ability to freeze a moment in time and tell a story through images. Each click of the shutter offers a new opportunity to capture the beauty and emotion in everyday life. I find immense joy in the creative process, from conceptualizing a shoot to meticulously editing the final images. The thrill of exploring new perspectives and discovering unique angles keeps my passion alive.

Additionally, I cherish the connections I build with my subjects, whether they are friends, family, or clients. Each interaction adds depth to my work and allows me to understand different stories and experiences. Ultimately, photography gives me the chance to express myself, inspire others, and continually learn and grow in an ever-evolving art form.

What types of shoots have you done and how did you make them special?

I have had the opportunity to work on a variety of shoots that have all contributed to my growth as a photographer.

One of my favorite types of shoots has been portrait photography. I’ve worked with friends and family, creating a relaxed environment that allows their personalities to shine through. To make these sessions special, I often incorporate personal elements—such as meaningful locations or props—that resonate with my subjects, helping to tell their unique stories.

I’ve also participated in several fashion shoots, which have been thrilling experiences. To make these shoots stand out, I collaborated closely with stylists and models, focusing on creative concepts and themes that highlighted both the clothing and the environment. The energy of these shoots, combined with the artistic direction, made each session a memorable adventure.
