Bio

From a young age, I was captivated by movies and books, their stories fueling my imagination and shaping my creative aspirations. Although I initially dreamed of becoming a writer, life led me to photography instead. In moments of reflection, I would gaze out the window, drawn to the vibrant beauty of the world around me. The diversity of cultures, people, festivals, landscapes, and rituals deeply fascinated me. At the age of 35, my journey into photography began with the gift of a small camera from my sister-in-law in Florida. Despite starting relatively late, photography quickly became my passion and purpose. Now, at 48, I have spent over 14 years as a visual storyteller, continually learning and evolving. Under the guidance of the acclaimed GMB Akash, I immersed myself in photography, developing a deep passion for capturing human life, festivals, cultures, travel, and street life. I find immense joy in uncovering beauty in the smallest details and celebrating life's stories through my lens. Among all genres, travel and documentary photography hold a special place in my heart. Behind the camera, I feel free, immersed in a world of creativity and discovery. My work has been recognized with numerous prestigious awards, including: • Xposure International Photography Award • Urban Photo Award • Chromatic Photography Travel Award • Budapest International Photography Award • Global Photography Award (Gold and Silver) • Tokyo Foto Festival Silver Award • Ashaishimbun Award Additionally, I have had 240 photos published on 1x.com along with 39 Awards and my work has been featured in both national and international publications.
