My documentary photography explores how innocence reveals itself in everyday life across the world, from the freedom of childhood to the quiet authenticity of our later years. The instinct to photograph was born during my introverted youth, out of a desire to find validation for my reserved nature in others’ moments of fragility and vulnerability.

Since I was creatively born as a filmmaker, my photographic vision is shaped by the directors who formed my imagination, such as Werner Herzog’s raw realities and search for hidden beauty, and the ethereal dimensions of Terrence Malick and Emmanuel Lubezki, where soul-searching becomes a way of life. My frames are intentionally composed, with space and setting acting as emotional amplifiers and narrative forces. Stark colours and contrasts keep scenes true to real-life emotion.

Contemporary times are often hostile to innocence. The pressure generated by competition, need for validation, and digital comparison pushes people to adopt false identities that suppress their fundamental essence. Innocence, to me, is not naivety but truth: a timeless reminder of who we are beneath performance and pretense, rooted in both personal and collective memory. My work aims to collect and protect those rare glimpses of pure openness where original nature still prevails, as a reminder of the fragile, luminous thread that defines humankind through universally shared emotion.
