As a photographer, the question "Why?" is a familiar one. For me, the answer is simple. Photography is not just a source of empowerment for those who view the images, but also for me behind the lens. It provides a medium to transcend language and communicate on a deeper, emotional level. Describing the beauty of the world through words often falls short, as belief is a personal experience. Through photography, I am privileged to capture stunning and impactful images that have the power to evoke tears of joy. It allows me to participate in the process of visually demonstrating the remarkable nature of individuals, rather than solely relying on verbal expression.
