I was totally pleased that I was among the winner of the Pride: through the lens challenge held on Pexels by format. I felt so inspired to do more with photography.

Here is a few words from my interview with formate magazine (VIEW THE FULL INTERVIEW ON FORMAT.COM)

Question 3: Why does this photo represent pride to you? : Emerging as one of the winners amongst millions of talented photographers is worth celebrating. A big Thank you to Format for the opportunity. This was one of those simple shoots at the beginning of the pride month, shot on a sunny afternoon.

To me, pride month demonstrates love and diversity, it is about positive self expression. No matter where you fall on the spectrum, you should feel good about yourself and that is what I stand for.
