Albert Einstein once said, "Creativity is intelligence, having fun.”
When taking different images and capturing special moments, I always keep this quote in mind. I believe that by capturing them while having fun, being explorative and being mindful of what I feel in each moment unlocks the creativity I need to accurately portray my surroundings, feelings, and ideas.
Growing up in Pretoria, South Africa, I have no shortage of inspiration with the unique mix of beautiful landscapes, some incredible architecture, and the wide rage of cultures our country has to offer.
I often find myself becoming near fanatic about capturing the life, the world around me.
With my smartphone, it’s so simple to capture the moments that resonate within me. Allowing me to forget about perfection, but rather on evoking the emotion, in bringing the story behind the photograph to life.
Elliot Erwitt explained it perfectly, “The whole point of taking pictures is so that you don’t have to explain things with words.”
