Biography:

When I was a teenager my father gave me a camera and as soon as I received me first roll of film back from the developers I was hooked. I was fascinated by the way a photograph could communicate non-verbally with the viewer and transport you to an exact moment in place and time. Initially I did wildlife and landscape photography which was challenging but very rewarding.  I also dabbled in a home darkroom set up, which got me into black and white photography. As I became more interested in photography I realised that it wasn’t necessary to travel far into the countryside to find something visually stimulating to photograph. I could just make photos of whatever was easily accessible to me, which led me to street photography. I practiced street photography alongside my other main interest which is DJing. When I wasn’t with my family or DJing I’d go out and shoot street photos. In the beginning I struggled to find a style or look that I was satisfied with. I mainly enjoyed the process of getting out and taking photos but then struggled when it came to editing the work. These days I feel more comfortable with the look of my images and I have become more confident in my output. Therefore my desire to share them with a wider audience has increased, which has brought me to share this set with Frame Tokyo.
