I have always had a passion for photography and love capturing moments that feel real. I’m especially drawn to sports and wildlife, where no two shots are ever the same, and I’m always looking to continue improving and telling stronger visual stories.

“I came across this photography contest online and decided to submit my work. It’s an intercollegiate competition where students showcase their best images, which are evaluated by both professional photographers and fellow participants. I was honoured to receive the Public’s Choice Award, along with a $250 prize.

This photo was taken during a trip to Thailand in 2023 at the Bangkok Railway Market. I edited it in Lightroom, adjusting elements such as exposure, shadows, tones, and colour to enhance the final image.”
