Childhood, unstaged
Small moments. Honest faces. A childhood lived in colour.
About this series
Photographer’s note
Childhood is fleeting. I photograph children as I find them—not as subjects, but as people living their own small stories. A smile behind a doorway, a game in the street, a curious glance, a moment of mischief or simply the warmth of being together. These photographs are about more than childhood. They are about memory, place and the simple beauty of growing up. I want to preserve these ordinary moments before they become memories that can never be photographed again. Every face carries a story. Every childhood leaves a trace.
