I have been taking photographs all my life. At age 10, I borrowed my father's old Pentax camera and headed out to the fields. I took my first photography class a year after under the guidance of a documentary filmmaker, developed my first B&W photo and was hooked. I have never stopped "thinking in frames" since. I pursued a career in science that trained me to be thorough, precise, patient. But photography remained my passion and I am only truly happy when behind the camera.
You just cannot go out to the park with three young kids and not have fun! I have known their mom for a long time. We studied together, long before I moved to the States and before she started her career...and family. Years passed and...well, life happened ;-) When we finally reconnected, she had three beautiful kids. She wanted me to take some pictures of them. When photographing multiple kids, I am not after them simultaneously looking into the camera. Actually, it is often hard to keep them in the frame ;-) (especially with that one FFL lens that I had!!!). But...I love such "imperfections of the moment". Because I only wanted to capture sunshine in their eyes, endless energy, innocent beauty of early childhood and...that love only a family can share. Enjoy!
