The work you do, defines you humbly.

When I was starting my photography career, as a photographer, I remember couple of incidents how I was so outcasted or feeling I don’t belong in my first few Fashion shows in the Bay Area… San Francisco to be precise.

And when we wake up, we would ran to my parents room and start opening the bag of goodies, from food to small toys. Which bring us joy, then and now.
