About

London based freelance photographer

With a genuine passion for photojournalism, documentary and portraiture, my curiosity about photography was born during my childhood, by looking at my father's old Rolleiflex, a union between a taboo object and a magic hat to me, from which many stunning shots came out.
While living in Ireland, I decided to deepen my professional studies to a more advanced level, and started attending several classes and workshops, experimenting with film cameras as well as digital, practicing with developing and printing in darkrooms and assisting various professional photographers in essays and jobs.

My shots are often influenced by music, poetry and quotes and also by the spirit of freedom and a sense of intolerance and oppression, narrated on two of my favourite books: "On the Road" by Jack Kerouac and "1984", by George Orwell.
