Grain and Grime

When I take photos, I don't go out looking for things to take photos of. Instead, I walk around. I listen, and observe. When I look around, often I see something that just clicks: an angle, some colors, or something aesthetically pleasing. When taking the photos, I realize that the best way for me to create is just to notice the little things around me.

Snow Pier

Photography helps me express my feelings, thoughts, and creativity. I am grateful to my sister for introducing me to this medium that allows me to feel so deeply. My camera will stay with me wherever I go because spotting beauty is unpredictable. My hope is to take and share beautiful pictures that inspire others to do the same.

Melodies of the Earth

The image was taken in San Francisco by 35 mm film after I got off the BART station. After the film got developed, I was stunned by how beautiful the city is and I ask myself a question, what is the city going to look like if the sea level keeps rising in the next many decades?

Cotton Candy

When I was taking this photo I put into consideration the time of the day it was, the aperture of the camera, the shutter speed of the camera, the weather, even the way the wind blew on my face. The colors of the photo pop in a way like no other. The sky looks like cotton candy mixed with sour patches.

This photo was produced 2 years ago, before the start of the Covid-19 outbreak. Taken in the streets of Venice, Italy, it portrays a peaceful and stunning image of what is hidden away from tourists traps and main plazas. While I was there, I fell in love with the color schemes, architecture, and the alley ways.
