I started to love the world of photography when I was still studying for Junior High School around 1988 at SMP 30 North Jakarta as a documentary for the activities of my school friends. The analog camera I used at that time, the Canon AV-1 and the 35-70mm lens, are still well preserved to this day as a memento.

Landscape photography is my main passion right now, although other themes such as portraits, street photography and of course photographing the market I also like, reminding me of my childhood works.
2013 was the beginning of my love for mirrorless cameras through one of Fujifilm’s products, namely the Fujifilm X-E1. This camera is considered very light and very easy in terms of transferring photo files from the camera to a smartphone for uploading purposes on Instagram, a social media that I just met that year.

2015, my seriousness in the world of photography and social media Instagram paid off. Several brands, namely Haida Filter, Fujifilm Indonesia, Lowepro Indonesia entrusted me as their Brand ambassador to promote their various products through Instagram. Besides several professional jobs related to the world of photography.
Thank you to all parties and friends who have helped me so far.
I remember the words of a friend of mine…

“Photographing is easy, it is difficult to admit and realize that our work is not good, I have to keep learning, Bismillah.”
