My journey into photography began when I was 16, earning me the title of the 'artsy' kid among my friends. Exploring the diverse neighborhoods of Toronto, from its bustling art galleries to its cultural museums, I found myself captivated by the idea of photography – the art of capturing fleeting moments.
When I received a DSLR camera as a birthday gift, it naturally turned me into the designated photographer in any of my friend groups. With the camera around my neck, I felt like I had a ticket to be anywhere, snapping candid shots and goofy faces, which only fueled my passion for photography. When smartphones came along, my enthusiasm waned. Perhaps it was due to how accessible photography had become, or simply because I was overwhelmed by busy days at school. Even when I began working after graduating from school, everyday life became mundane and dull. I struggled to appreciate the ordinary scenes around me. The indoor life during COVID only exacerbated this feeling of blandness.

Yet, amidst this shift, there was a silver lining. Moving to Switzerland breathed fresh air into my passion. With my inner photographer’s spark rekindled, I was compelled to capture the beautiful scenery seamlessly woven into everyday life and share it with my family and friends.
Through this rediscovery, I found a deep well of joy. Photography became a way to uncover beauty and meaning in the little things. Each click of the shutter became a testament to my quest for happiness, revealing the extraordinary hidden within the ordinary.
Now, I’m thrilled to share my photography collection with you. Join me as I navigate life’s journey of discovery. Through my lens, I aspire to share perspectives, insights, and reflections as I capture moments of beauty, pose questions, and unravel answers, one photograph at a time.
