7 Years of experience

Photography is about stealing a moment from time for treasuring. Emotions, inspirations all of it is meant to be savored. A photo can be worth a thousand words, and with the right amount of effort and attention to detail, it can be worth a novel of words. In that way, I am proficient at writing novels.
