About My Journey

Capturing Modern Nostalgia

My journey in photography began in October 2024, exploring the world through the lens of my iPhone 16 Pro. This modern tool became my gateway into the art of visual storytelling, teaching me the fundamentals of composition and light.

In January 2025, I took a step into analog photography with my Yashica FX1. The mechanical process of film photography has given me a deeper appreciation for each frame and the thoughtfulness required in capturing moments.

As I continue to evolve as a photographer, I'm excited about my upcoming transition to the Fujifilm X-S20, which will become my primary camera. This fusion of digital precision and classic aesthetic represents my approach to photography - bridging contemporary technology with timeless technique.
