He's here with us to share more about his passion and interesting chi-chat for PinoySeoul.com.

How did you started with photography?

I started with photography when a friend introduces it to me as a hobby and eventually it became a part of my career and a passion.

What was your life before moving to Seoul?

I am simply happy and determined , living one day at a time doing my job with careful thought, confidence and honesty for the sake of my family.


Fun tidbit: He took one of our first cover photo for PinoySeoul.com!

What do you do here in South Korea?

I am working as a Factory worker. From Monday to Saturday and Sunday is my free day, the time i can recreate and do some activities like photography, mountain hiking and biking.

Any tricks and trade for aspiring photographers?

A picture paints a thousand words said an old saying, so my words for aspiring photographers is that, they should start capturing, not just photos, but more so, STORIES.


As you can see, he is not just capturing photos, he is telling stories.
