What makes your style unique?

I believe I am a master of natural light and still learning and finding new things about it. I love shooting in the sun, where many wouldn't. People say they can spot my work even before they see my name tagged next to it. I think my style is pretty natural, as little editing as possible, warm, happy. Looking at my pictures, you can always feel the connection between the model and myself.

How did you get started with fashion photography?

I grew up in a family of photographers – my dad and my granddad were both photographers. I started photography at a very young age, having it as a side gig, as a hobby. Later on in life, I have realised that this is something that I would love to do full time. It's been blooming ever since.
