I'm a self-taught photographer with a passion for capturing moments and scenes that seem to easily pass others by. I live by the motto: #AppreciateEverything, and this is evident in every shot.

One of my favourite aspects of my photographic story is that I capture stunning scenes, even 'macro' photography, using nothing more than my phone! If you like my photos, feel free to reach out or hire me!
