Who I am, Who Am I?

I’m a licensed and practicing architect. When I started taking photography seriously again during covid, I created a pseudonym in continuing my hobby.

My grandfather would visit from abroad and he always carried a film camera. Nothing fancy, just a generic automatic film camera to captures memories. Come to think of it, my parents took pictures when they were younger – didn’t all parents back then? I still have childhood photos from the 80s and 90s.

Then in high school, digital cameras started hitting store shelves and I convinced my father that we needed one. Our first family digital camera was a Sony with maybe 3 megapixels?

But even still, I bought a disposable and took one of my grandpa’s film cameras when going abroad in high school. Digital cameras were hard to charge, hard to move data, and could only carry a handful of images.

Then in college, I took a film photography class that was offered through the architecture program. That really changed things for me, and I ended up buying a dedicated digital camera for myself.
