Tell a story, be yourself and create
Street photography made me fall in love with cities and streetlife again. Every time I bring my camera with me, the city become a different place. More light, more life, more details and more grain.
I see streets mainly in black & white.
What is street photography?
It’s an artsy documentary of our times for future generations. It’s about capturing time in the right moment. I don’t mind if it’s grainy, out of focus and dark as long as it tells a story. A good street photograph should be able to tell a story.
Street photographers are basically quiet storytellers.
Streetphotography is also about breaking the rules of what streetphotography is.
Here are some of my stories in images:
