You don’t become a street photographer, you realize you are one.
I realized it around late 2012. Finding pictures on the street, documenting life and humans, was growing into becoming my passion. The pleasure of finding and capturing truly candid moments and emotions trough to an image is what drives me to wander cities day and night in search of what life would have to offer to me and my camera. Today, the passion still grows stronger day by day. So much to be captured, so many moments to be recorded, the next image might be just around the corner.
Fascinated by candid street photography, photo journalism as well as social documentary I am still developing and finding new challenges as I progress. My background in urban culture and painting now seamlessly ties into my photography.
Too many subjects, not enough time.

To enable me is all I ask from my camera. A versatile, capable tool with character that does exactly what i expect it to do with greatness: captures what I see, the way I see it, the moment I see it under the conditions I am in. On the Street, the Fuji cameras do exactly that. With so much character and style that all my Fujis became truly dear to me. My style of shooting is directly related to the possibilities that these beautiful cameras offer me. The X-T1 is the extension to my eye, the magic box that captures what’s in front of me in the streets. As a Street Photographer I believe that Fuji cameras incorporate all that allows me to capture candid street life in urban environments efficiently. Small, discreet, great low light performance, direct and fast access to all settings that matter make this camera such a versatile companion. Stunning image quality, the direct access to key controls and the sensor that sees at night have me take my Fujis wherever I go.
