I’m not a photographer or videographer by trade, but capturing moments while traveling is something I do with a lot of heart. Whether it’s through analog film, digital shots, or drone footage.

These images and videos are pieces of moments that meant something to me. Each one holds a memory, a feeling, or a detail that stuck with me long after the trip ended.

Those shots were taken during a one-day bike trip along Lake Kawaguchiko and Lake Saiko. With a drone and analog camera in my backpack, I captured Mount Fuji from above and on film—a quiet, spontaneous escape where everything just clicked.

I was so lost in my own head that night, I often found myself just standing still, soaking it all in. Sometimes I choose not to take a photo—just to be more present, to really feel the moment. But here are a few I did capture—snapshots of an atmosphere filled with energy, warmth, and authenticity.

BANGKOK - NIGHT MARKETS

I put these Lisbon and Tenerife shots together because both places have that rare mix of opposites that somehow just works. The ocean softens the noise of the city, and the city adds edge and character to the coast. That contrast is what pulled me in, and it’s what I wanted to reflect in these shots.

AMAZONAS - BRAZILIAN SIDE

Caught a quiet moment of a wedding by Lake Saiko. Asked the bride’s father if I could sneak a quick shot—he nodded, smiled, and said, “just be fast.”

MOUNT FUJI

LISBON & TENERIFFE

I went to the Amazon with no real plan—just a feeling that I needed to see it for myself, in my own way. Nothing about this trip—or the shoot—was planned, which made it all the more fun and full of creative experimentation.
