Millions of Photographers share an abiding appreciation of photography. Indeed, whether we're young or old, the photographic image speaks eloquently to us all. Taking photos was my hobby that became a passion. I am one of those who are incredibly fascinated with beautiful compositions when it comes to clicking the camera. I am NOT a professional photographer but I am really happy of what I do.
After few months of studying photography... I started off with life documentary, going around Cambodia and neighboring country and documenting the Life of Street Children, The Orphanages and few Girls/Ladies working as a waitress during the night . It was my first project that really captivated me and inspired me a lot to take pictures. Indeed, it really helped me tremendously, in understanding different cultures, traditions and beliefs. It also equipped me with more patience and enthusiasm to learn and to continue learning more about Life and Photography. I captured different ordinary gestures of ordinary people in ordinary situations which really is a discovery for me.
It was 6 years ago, when I was documenting the life of this 8 year old Cambodian girl. Listening to her TRUE TO LIFE stories melted my heart and at the same time it scared me in some ways. At that very moment, I simply felt that I was in the stage of counseling this little girl, instead of taking photos of her to document. With this girl's stories, it aroused my curiosity, my interest and my enthusiasm to spotlight society's rejects. The more curious and excited I became. I felt determined to not only take pictures but also to be a good listener to my subjects' stories. (like an adventure)...
Photography opens my way of looking at how to appreciate and love the true nature of oneself. I am mostly impressed and inspired with all the good photographers of the NATIONAL GEOGRAPHIC and of course to MONSIEUR ROBERT DOISNEAU, a French photographer, who captures black and white documentary images. I am also inspired with all the works of photographers here at MULTIPLY and above all, to my OTHER HALF who inspires me a lot and supporting me in what I do (my passion for photography).
As for now, I've shifted my clicking into Nature, Animals, Landscapes and probably to get back to Documentary again, once given' the chance. I would love to learn and to discover all sorts of angles of taking good pictures.
Thank you for reading my long welcome message and I hope you'll enjoy viewing my photos... God bless!
