My pursuit involves seeking the perfect moment and harnessing the interplay of light to transform the ordinary into the extraordinary. As a photographer, my goal is to bear witness to significant moments and chronicle human stories. I firmly believe in the power of photography to capture compelling visual narratives, inspiring positive change in our world. I hold a lifetime membership with the Myanmar Photographic Society and have been honored as the Best Photographer of the Year in Myanmar on two occasions.
