How photojournalism came to his life and turned into a full time profession, it was a prolong process in various stages.

As the year passed by he went much deeper and deeper into this photojournalism field with self practice. His eyes started observing and seeing simple things of everyday life in a creative way. So one fine day he decided to quit his full time job in healthcare field and to start this photojournalism career.

But from his past professional experiences in healthcare counseling and public relations management, which contributed opportunity to explore and understand the stories of each individual person more closely. Slowly he understood what he is doing and what he expects from this career. It’s not about only to make good portraiture and documentary stories, its more likely how he can deeply understand and connect himself with the subject psychologically, before clicking the shutter. And the most important part of his work is to express the meaningful purpose of our life in a broader sense.
