This is a portrait of my daughter. And she's bilingual. I wanted to show in one photo how difficult it is for her to express herself, her creativity in a foreign environment. How does it feel? Communicate with others in dad's language, and think in mom's language.

My passion is nature. I love to observe the world and the people around me. I love capturing real emotions. I like to stop time and capture those moments in a photo. I love taking pictures of children because they are sincere, they don't wear masks. I am happy when my photos evoke emotions in other people. Because when we experience emotions, we truly live.
