My photo's are raw reflections of reality, my reality. I don't use bright colors, often heads are cut and the images are not always pleasant to look at. I confront you with itimate, sometimes uncomfortable private events that confuses. Provocative and stilled at the same time. What you see is what you get. Life is not a fairy tale!
