FALLING IN LOVE WITH THE STREETS
Urban life, for me, is a constant sense of discovery - one in which my camera has become my closest companion.
On the street, no one tells me what to photograph; I am free to follow my instincts, my gaze, and my curiosity. This freedom is essential to my creative process.

In this context, I often choose to work with film. It demands a different technique, a slower pace, and a deeper presence than my photojournalistic assignments. This more deliberate way of working allows me to perceive my surroundings differently and, as a result, to create images that are quieter, more intuitive, and more reflective. This is where I find the true joy and essence of photography.
I am also a co-founder of the Budapest Street Photography Collective (BPSPC), whose long-term goal is to foster greater acceptance and understanding of street photography. The current legal environment regulates photographing people in public spaces very strictly, making documentary, artistic, and socially engaged work increasingly difficult. Through our collective activities, we aim to create dialogue, visibility, and a more supportive framework for street photography as a legitimate form of visual storytelling.
