I took my first shots with my father’s camera. Then I began photographing people and places while traveling. I’m often asked what come first: travel or photography? Hard to say. I can’t even imagine going somewhere without a camera (“there’s always might be a photograph out there”) but I’m also that kind of person who plans the next trip even before the one I’m starting.

For the past 10 years, I have spent time studying photography, attending courses and workshops with professional photographers, also at the ICP of New York City
