    As a portrait photographer, my work is all about capturing genuine emotion and the joyful spirit of people just as they are in this moment of their lives. With a focus on true-to-life color and a playful, happy aesthetic, I aim to create portraits that feel real, warm, and full of life. Each image is more than just a photo—it’s a piece of personal artwork meant to be lived with and cherished. My goal is to reflect the beauty of connection and individuality in a way that feels authentic, fun, and timeless.

    This show captures a powerful transition—from the blank, screen-zombie faces of children lost in their devices to the wild, carefree, and joyful play that lives inside all of us. It is a visual rebellion against the pressure to stay plugged in, an invitation to step away from the constant pull of screens and to reconnect with the earth, nature, and the messy beauty of childhood. In a world where kids are glued to devices instead of exploring and playing—even when given the chance—this work celebrates the courage to be different, to wonder, to be rebellious, and above all, to play freely and be unplugged.
