Photographing London
Living in London makes sense that it will be the most photographed city in all of the images that I’ve created. Although I am quite bias, it is a very beautiful city.

Travel and Inspiration
I’ve been quite stagnant lately both creatively, mentally and emotionally. For the past decade or so, photography has been my outlet and also a way for me to figure things out.

Some architectural elements can also only reveal their full effect when viewed from below. This particular view demonstrates how powerful this perspective is…
Unexpected Lessons
They are many reasons why I would never claim to be a patient person. I find myself losing interest mid-conversations and very often when watching movies.
