I am a graphic designer and programmer working as Art Director for Media Division.
By training, I have a bachelor’s degree in engineering (BEng), specialization mechanical engineering, another bachelor’s in economic (BEc), specialization marketing and a master’s in management. Although these may seem unrelated to my day to day job, they provide an excellent foundation for my work.
This site is more about my other side: I’m a semi-pro photographer (in the sense that I derive less that 50% of my income from photography) and I don’t intend to change that. My models are not professional either, in fact some of them never posed before and thought they wouldn’t look good in pictures. I do love that glimmer in their eyes when they see their finished photos for the first time and along with it I sense the increase in self-esteem; for me, that’s the best reward I can hope for. This is also the reason I’m not doing “daring” or “artsy” stuff. I’m not doing it for me, I’m doing it from them, so they look good and be proud.
