What do you love about your job?

I love my job for so many reasons—it's hard to put into words sometimes. First and foremost, it's the people. Connecting with individuals and capturing their unique stories through my lens is incredibly fulfilling. Whether it's a family, a couple, or a corporate event, I cherish the moments of joy, love, and connection that I get to document.

Then there's the creative process. From brainstorming ideas to composing the perfect shot, I thrive on the challenge of bringing stories to life through photography. It's a constant journey of exploration and discovery, pushing myself to find new ways to evoke emotions and tell compelling narratives.

Seeing the impact my work has on others is another reason I'm so passionate about what I do. Whether it's bringing a smile to someone's face with a cherished family portrait or helping a business showcase its brand through striking imagery, knowing that my photographs make a difference is incredibly rewarding.
Photography allows me to combine my love for storytelling, creativity, and connection into a career that I'm truly passionate about. It's not just about capturing moments—it's about creating memories that will be cherished for a lifetime.

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

When it comes to headshots & portraits, I aim to capture more than just a person's physical appearance. I want to convey their personality and essence through the image. To achieve this, I spend time getting to know my subject, engaging in conversation to bring out their natural expressions and emotions. I pay attention to lighting and composition, ensuring that the final shot not only looks professional but also feels authentic and captivating.

With events, I focus on storytelling. I strive to capture the atmosphere, energy, and emotions of the event, transporting viewers back to that moment in time. I pay close attention to details, capturing candid moments, interactions, and key highlights of the event. By being unobtrusive yet attentive, I ensure that the photos reflect the essence of the occasion, allowing clients to relive the experience long after it's over.

With product photography, it's all about showcasing the unique features and qualities of the item being photographed. I approach each product shoot with careful planning and attention to detail. I experiment with different angles, lighting setups, and compositions to highlight the product's best attributes and create visually appealing images. Whether it's a sleek gadget or a handcrafted item, I aim to capture its essence in a way that captivates the viewer and leaves a lasting impression.
