'Box portrait' series, Achilles. When I started as a photographer, the best piece of advice I received was to learn to optimize and develop the art with the equipment I had without succumbing to gear lust. Respect the steps and the process, be patient. Not only did it teach me to improvise and research the light creatively, it also allowed me to curate each portrait in more details, subtly personalizing to each subject's features and lives. 'Achilles' represents the light, softness, color tones and poetry I aim to create.
