Play / Photography
Photography is where I practice looking slowly. These series are studies of light, distance, texture, atmosphere, and quiet structure, the same visual instincts that shape my product design work.

The images stay in color. The surrounding interface stays soft and restrained so the photographs can carry the emotion.
Series 01
A scenic town in Ontario where classical architecture and slow streets make time feel more leisurely. This series is about quiet travel, texture, and a softer pace of looking.
Series 02
A flock of seagulls by the river, calm as a group but lonely as individual figures.
Series 03
A photography-course final project using image compositing. Blue carries both future-facing hope and the melancholy of student life.
Series 04
An early morning lakeside series from Algonquin Park, where thin mist and cloudy light create a calm but heavy atmosphere.
Series 05
A study of a single flame and its shifting shapes: sometimes a bird, sometimes a dancer, sometimes a figure made only from light.
Series 06
A record of sunrise at Two Rivers Lake in Algonquin Park, from blue hour into warm morning light. I arrived around 6 a.m. and followed the lake as it slowly changed color.

Each cover above now opens as its own photography page, matching the original portfolio structure.
Start with Paris, OntarioPlay shows the part of my eye that case studies cannot fully express. Photography trains composition, restraint, color, atmosphere, and attention to detail. Those same instincts show up later in interface hierarchy and product feel.
The way light falls across a building, water, mist, or a flame is close to how I think about UI surfaces: depth, contrast, rhythm, negative space, and the quiet pressure of an object inside a frame.
