Journal | Reflections on Creativity and Ideas
This journal is where I share personal reflections on creativity — thoughts, ideas, and moments that shape the way I see the world. It isn’t only about photography or architecture, but about the wider process of making and observing. Some entries are stories, others are experiments, all connected by curiosity and a search for meaning in creative work.
Daylesford: A Quiet Escape into Nature
A weekend in Daylesford reminds me why I return again and again. Surrounded by forest, firelight, and the quiet energy of nature, I captured small glimpses of what makes this place so special.
Singapore: A Creative Lesson About Knowing When to Stop
Singapore was my first Asian city, and it taught me a lesson I’ll never forget. I overshot, filled drives with footage, and felt overwhelmed. In the end, I learned that creativity isn’t about capturing everything, but about knowing when to stop and trust the moment.
The Night of a Thousand Stars
A quiet night under a sky full of stars, a new camera in hand, and a memory that lingered long after the trip was over. A story about rediscovery, simplicity, and the magic of printing a moment that matters.
Stairway to the Pagoda
After a long journey from Hiroshima to Fujikawaguchiko, we took an unexpected sunset trek to Chureito Pagoda — and it led to one of the most rewarding photographic moments of my trip. A quiet climb, a glowing sky, and a surprise ending I’ll never forget.
A Place for the Soul: Visiting Uluru for the First Time
In October 2023, I visited Uluru for the first time — not knowing that this trip would be more than just a photography journey. It became a moment of stillness, presence, and quiet connection to something much bigger than me.
Arigato (ありがとう) Andrés-san
After 20 years of wondering what Japan was really like, I finally went. This isn’t just about travel — it’s about childhood memories, friendship, and seeing a long-held curiosity come to life.
Fuji San and Social Media
Caught between the lens and the crowd, I travelled to Japan to photograph Mt. Fuji — but ended up finding something far more meaningful. This is a story about social media, stillness, and rediscovering intention as a photographer.
