A picture speaks a thousand words, they say. I don´t think pictures speak louder then words, but
they definitely speak for them self.
Lately my camera has become my significant other, I took her almost wherever I went and
sometimes just even went somewhere to take photos. Street-photography and people shots appeal
the most to me, even though it´s one of the hardest kinds of photography and I basically don´t know
shit about it. I have always loved to observe people. I basically am that weird girl sitting in a cafe or
on a park bench, observing people passing by and wondering what they are about. Taking pictures
of people I most of the time don´t know is really exciting to me. I found myself
creeping around, hiding behind my camera Homo-Faber style and trying to get a shot of people I
found interesting- Most of them were immigrants, homeless people and Children.
I decided to pursue my passion for writing and photography and take it to the next level, so I will
sign up with MatadorU (world wide biggest online travel magazine) for the online travel journalism
course. YEEW! I know that I am at the very start and have to learn so much more about
photography and writing since I am just an amateur with a passion so I can´t wait to get the course
started. I think I have quite fine intuition for a good photograph, but there is definately a huge lack of technical knowledge and equipment so throughout the course I want to focus on learning alot about technical stuff, use of light and getting more depth into my photos through knocking out the background f.e. etc.
So none of those are perfect, but no one has ever improved by withdrawing and hiding in the closet, right?
Most of my facebook friends who follow me probably know some of those photos already, but
since I have got readers from all over the world from Serbia to Bosnia to France to Australia, Indonesia, the
USA and UK to Libanon and Iran (The Internet and its reach is a crazy little thing!) I will post them up here
to share with all of you guys.
At this point I want to say thanks to all of you who read my blog, it really means a lot to me and
every click and/or comment makes me more than happy!
Also I want to thank my producers, my family, god and my fans also, without you I would not have
made it. - I´m just kidding but seriously, thank you. I will shut up now.

| Girl playing with doll in the streets. Could have watched her forever, too cute to be true. |
 |
| She is loving the attention now. Such a little tease |
 |
| Her name is Vila, she is a beggar I regularly converse with. She usually asks for supplies from the supermarket and I´m happy to get them for her. Cheeky business lady right there. Coolest gold teeth also. |
 |
| Immigrants. Child with special needs and teddy bear. |
 |
| The mother gave me permission through eyecontact to take a photo of them. The little one didn´t even seem to realize what I was doing, she was posing in proud silence. |
 |
| She. Has been my dearest friend for 18 years and always will be.Truly beautiful inside and out.(Insert violins playing) |
 |
| Another one. Melancholy suits you well! |
 |
| Squeezebox. Tourists love him, he loved the camera. |
