About the girl "Behind the Lens"

hi, I'm esme.

Daydreamer but most importantly, Storyteller.

Since as far as I remember I have always been drawn to cameras and capturing moments. My curiosity soon led to passion and at the young age of 13, I bought my first point and shoot. I knew this is what I wanted to do forever. Even though I was told I could never pursue a career. I still had people in front of my lens and I loved getting to capture their genuine smiles and laughs. But also evoking feeling and emotions. Even though fear and anxiety has always crippled me. Creating became my favorite type of magical therapy, away from the real world. When I get to capture or create with another person. This becomes our safe place away from judgment and fear. I want them to feel accepted, welcomed and see that they too belong. They are wonderful the way they already are. Let's create something magical together and capture memories that will last a lifetime.
