My Favourite Space (Ongoing)









My Favourite Space — Publication











My practice is rooted in photography, architecture, and conversation.
I work slowly and attentively — observing how people relate to space, and how meaning is built through presence, memory, and care.

Before I lift the camera, I listen.
Photography is not the starting point — trust is. I spend time with people, and often the photograph appears only when something honest begins to unfold.

I don’t stage images or retouch them afterward.
I use analog tools to stay close to what’s real — the light, the texture, the imperfection. Every image is shaped by attention, not editing.

A House in the Making











I often begin with a detail — a seam, a surface, the way a person touches something.
These gestures reveal how space is lived in, how it’s made meaningful through repetition and intimacy.
