COMMISSIONS / PHOTOGRAPHY & FILM

Considering together
what should be preserved.

I create photography and films for individuals, companies, and cultural and artistic projects. Beyond the act of photographing itself, I consider what should remain from a person or place and shape the documentation accordingly.
