Where images and words converge to tell stories
Welcome
Through the lens of my camera, I capture moments frozen in time. Through the ink of my pen, I explore the memories that have bones. As both photographer and author, I invite you to experience the world as I see it—sometimes straight on, sometimes looking sideways at what others might miss.
My writing, like my photography, seeks to reveal what lies beneath the surface—the hidden histories, the inherited stories, and the whispered truths that shape who we are.
