i take a lot of photos 📸

i probably have a photo from every single day this year. i take a lot of photos.

but i absolutely do live in the moment. it’s important to truly internalize “for the memories” when clicking away, so i don’t get hung up on the perfect angle.

i take photos so i can share those moments with the people i cherish. i’m privileged to be able to see the world and explore so much, from crowded markets in tokyo to the world’s tallest summits. it’s such a blessing to have so many fond memories that there’s something worth capturing every day.

i grew up rolling my eyes whenever my mom asked me to stop and smile for a picture. now, it’s funny that i do the exact same thing. I ask my friends to pause and smile, and my family to look at the camera, taking a moment to pause and preserve it for longer.

i want to freeze that happiness, so i can revisit the foundation that fuels my future.

i frame each day twice. once with my eyes, once with my lens.
