Yes this is the face behind the camera. The one with all the incredible moves and chatty personality to make you feel comfortable in front of the camera.⁠

I am a director, a fly on the wall, a pro 3rd wheeler in short. I am artistic so you might just have to hang from a tree😂 kidding not kidding

Honestly this might be how I earn a living, but to me it's not a job, it's a gift to hang out with insanely cool people (yes I am talking about you), a gift to see the beauty in every person and a gift to see how amazing light plays a role in insanely awesome landscapes.

A question I get a lot: Is this your real job?
.
Yes I might want to punch every person that asks this (not really), but I understand where they are coming from. This is each to his own in the photography industry might I add:
.
I don't just take photos, I edit, design albums, do branding, maintain and design a website, write blog posts, reply to emails, meet clients, scout locations for shoots, finance and marketing.
.
Oh and btw I am also a qualified Makeup Artist, Event planner and UX Designer if you didn't know.
