I fell in love with photography as a child, helping my dad develop pictures of landscapes in his darkroom. Years later, I too became a photographer.

I am fascinated by people. Few things make me happier than spending a few hours in the company of my family albums. They allow me to dream about a world I never knew - my mum's childhood, my parents' wedding day, my early years - one that I only know existed because the pictures are there to prove it.

This feeling of nostalgia is what motivates my work. I approach each subject, whether it is a wedding, a portrait or even a landscape, with the desire to capture the emotion. Be it happiness or sadness, each picture tells a story of that exact moment in time. That is what I aim to capture.

Other than photography, my passions in life include films, California, Mid Century Modern design, my cat Annie Hall, and growing old with the people I love.

And if Mastermind ever call, they can question me to death on the subject of Mad Men.
