Run.
Feel the wind.
Can you hear me?
The moments collect in the heart and can be seen in the photographs.
My eyes are the camera and camera is a tool that keeps me alive.
Travel, laugh, cry, leave, belong, remember, believe, love…
People and places gives me the chance to capture moments.
Photography is also a way to externalize my emotions.
Move forward and keep your memories safe.
