I've always had a love for the camera, even at a very small age.
I remember sitting watching my Dad play around with his 35mm, fascinated by his quiet stillness as he aimed his lens.

You could say that he passed on to me the art of patience; the notion that you have to wait for the right time. I've learned that not only do you need a good subject to capture, but you also have to have the ability to seek and find that certain moment, always keeping an open eye.

I will admit, I've always had a passion for faces... for the human expression.
I followed my Dad's footsteps and learned to appreciate and capture a person's emotions. Therefore, portrait photography is my all time fave.... and some say I seem to have quite the knack for it.
I also enjoy capturing textures, such as those that nature offers us everyday: leaves, petals, the veins and rings of wood.

I am much the amateur. All I have to offer is my love for the camera and a true passion for colours. I have never taken a photography course, nor have I ever read up much about it. This clearly shows in my work, but I enjoy it all the same.
I'm here merely to share my views on life, how i see them, through my lens.
