  • Pinhole

I work with pinhole cameras because they slow the world down to the pace of breath. In an age of instant images, I choose a method that welcomes imperfection, softness, and the quiet drift of time. Each photograph begins long before the shutter opens in the stillness of  landscapes, in the hush of wind through reeds, in the subtle shift of light that asks to be noticed.

My images are not meant to be precise; they are meant to feel lived‑in. The long exposures blur movement into memory, letting grasses sway into ghostly gestures and lakes dissolve into mist. What remains is the essence of a moment — imperfect, transient, and deeply human.

I embrace the wabi‑sabi philosophy: beauty found in the incomplete, the weathered, the fleeting. A pinhole photograph is never fully under my control. It is a collaboration with nature, with time, with chance. The softness, the grain, the gentle distortions, these are not flaws, but traces of presence.

Through my work, I invite the viewer to pause. To breathe. To rediscover the quiet poetry that exists in the spaces between things. Each image is a reminder that stillness is not empty, it is full of life waiting to be felt.
