About me
I may not be able to talk about my photographs but they defenetly talk about me
My love story with photography began very early when I was 12. Ever since then I have been photographing every single day of my life... It's an unstoppable impulse.
I don't know the meaning of my photography. But I know that talks about me, because it has evolved with me.
After my daughter was born in 2017, my photographic eye has become more emotional and intense. These powerful emotions enhance a way of seeing. My photography comes from the heart, without filters, and in every moment there is something eternal.
This is what people say about my photography:
"simple but depth, a simple representation of trust"
"Full of sense of life...so calm and femenine"
"Always feels viewing a memory"
"your work always draws me in with details and makes me look for the story"
"your photography feels like time has stopped"
"the yearning, loneliness and cloudiness of love"
