What do you love about your job?
What I love most about being a photographer is the privilege of capturing moments that are not just seen, but felt. It's about freezing those fleeting emotions, the laughter, the joy, the quiet glances that speak volumes. Every click of the camera is a story waiting to be told, a memory that becomes timeless through the lens. I cherish the opportunity to transform ordinary moments into extraordinary memories that my clients can cherish forever.
What types of shoots have you done and how did you make them special?
've had the pleasure of photographing a variety of shoots including newborns, weddings, product shoots, and food photography. Each type of shoot presents its own unique challenges and opportunities to create something special. Here’s how I approach them:
Newborn Photography: For newborn shoots, I focus on creating a calm and comfortable environment. I prioritize patience and sensitivity to capture the innocence and sweetness of newborns. I pay attention to details like soft lighting and gentle posing to highlight the tiny features and emotions.
Wedding Photography: Wedding shoots are about capturing the love and joy of couples on their special day. I strive to blend into the background to capture candid moments while also guiding and directing for beautiful portraits. I aim to tell a cohesive and emotional story through the sequence of images, ensuring each moment is captured with authenticity and elegance.
Product Photography: Product shoots require meticulous attention to detail. I emphasize lighting, composition, and styling to showcase the product’s features and benefits effectively. Whether it's highlighting textures, colors, or functionality, I aim to create images that attract and engage viewers.
Food Photography: Food photography is all about making dishes look appetizing and inviting. I focus on composition, color harmony, and lighting to enhance the texture and freshness of the food. Each shot is meticulously styled to evoke the viewer's senses and create a desire to taste the food.
In every shoot, my goal is to go beyond just capturing images; I aim to make each session special by understanding my clients' needs, paying attention to detail, and bringing creativity and passion to every photograph.

A fun fact about this photographer
I once had a newborn session where the baby slept through the entire shoot while cuddling a tiny stuffed elephant. It was incredibly adorable and made for some of the sweetest and most heartwarming photos I've ever taken. The little one seemed so peaceful and content, creating a magical atmosphere that truly captured the essence of innocence and new beginnings
