KIDS WITH GUNS - LAMAYURU INDIA
After twelve months of planning and thousands of miles traveled, I finally arrived at Lamayuru Monastery in Ladakh, India—one of the oldest and most sacred monasteries in the Himalayas, home to the legendary Mask Dance Festival.
I came to photograph the ritual: the swirling robes, the masked monks, the sacred choreography of tradition.But behind my lens, something else demanded attention.Local children raced through the monastery grounds with plastic toy guns, weaving between ancient stupas and sacred spaces.
It wasn’t the story I came to capture—but perhaps it was the one I needed to see.
ANNAPURNA MOUNTAIN RANGE - NEPAL
It all started with a single image — a view so close, yet somehow so far away. I had travelled all the way to Nepal, into the Annapurna region, and knew I couldn’t leave without getting closer to the oldest mountains in the world.
After my first glimpse of the snow-capped peaks, I decided to take on a four-day solo motorbike journey deep into the mountains. The roads became narrower, rougher and more unpredictable with every kilometre. There were river crossings, falls, three broken chains and flat tyres — moments when the journey felt as though it was testing every bit of determination I had.
But then there was the magic: the mountains, the incredible scenery, and most of all, the people I met along the way. Their warmth and kindness made every breakdown, every fall and every difficult kilometre completely worth it.
It wasn’t just a motorbike trip. It was an adventure into a world where the journey itself became the destination.

Behind Pushkar's vibrant tourist performances is Sandra, a single mother from Rajasthan's Kalbeliya community. Over four weeks, I documented her journey from everyday family life to the stage, revealing a powerful story of identity, resilience, and survival beyond the performance.

WATER IS LIFE - On Assignment for EBS Advisory
The severe drought in Southern Ethiopia is forcing children to walk miles each day to collect water alongside livestock and donkeys, leaving little time for school or education. In some areas, families rely on geothermal steam vents to gather water drop by drop—a process that can take up to 10 hours to fill a single 5-liter bottle.
Without access to water, children lose access to health, education, and the chance for a better future.
WOMAN IN THE WORKPLACE
On an assignment for Vuka Timber, when I realised almost half the workforce were women. It reminded me how important representation, respect, and opportunity are in every industry. Yet true equality means more than representation, it means equal opportunities, equal pay, respect, and a seat at every table.
Here’s to the women who lead, inspire, mentor, and rise while lifting others along the way.
