In this portrait, I aimed to capture the raw energy and simultaneous vulnerability of a moment. The flowing hair creates a natural veil, allowing only a glimpse of the face - like a curtain moving in the wind. The black and white conversion enhances the texture and movement of the hair, while the dark clothing and background create a timeless atmosphere.
The image was captured in a moment of spontaneous movement, exploring the boundary between concealment and revelation, between presence and mystery.

n this portrait, I aimed to capture the pure essence of human expression. In a world overflowing with visual stimuli, I chose reduction - to the most essential, the eyes. They are our most direct means of communication, windows to our emotions and stories.
The black veiling not only creates a dramatic contrast to the blue eyes but also invites reflection: How much do we need to see to perceive a person? Sometimes a single glance is enough to tell a story.
The technical challenge lay in the precise lighting - just enough to emphasize the depth of the eyes while keeping the fabric's texture barely perceptible.

This picture was created as a vintage style picture. The butterflies are a symbol of fragility and beauty at the same time and the hourglass is meant to symbolize that time is unstoppable.
