My visual practice examines the quiet challenges of womanhood: the tension between the adult self and the child within, the spaces where identity bends under expectation yet reshapes itself into something new.

I explore the inner emotional structures of women — the conflict between instinct and awareness, between who we were taught to be and who we are willing to become.

My portraits follow a woman’s journey into self-discovery, revealing vulnerability as an act of identity-making and becoming — a slow, deliberate process of reclaiming freedom.

I am drawn to transitional states, to women standing at the edge of change, knowing they no longer fit the past but not yet knowing how to take the next step.

From time to time, I open a limited number of personal portrait projects and release small print editions. If you’re interested in author-driven visual collaborations or in my ongoing photographic work, I’d be glad to connect.

My work lives at the intersection of art and emotional storytelling.

If you are looking for imagery for exhibitions, publications, album or book covers, or other artistic projects, I’d love to hear from you.

From time to time, I open a small number of portrait sessions — for those who resonate with my vision and the emotional language of my work.
