Although my life has never been significantly interesting, I believe that even I have a story to tell, and what better way to do that than with a photo gallery of some of the most memorable moments in my whole 15 years of life? I figured this would be a good way to give you a glimpse into a part of me, without getting either overly personal or overly general.

It doesn’t seem like the most detailed way to tell a life story, but through taking photos (and much trial and error), I’ve learned that every picture is worth a thousand words. At a first glance, all that appears is a cluster of pixels and some light. It might be a little disoriented, or messy, but I can tell you with much self-assurance that every photo, even those that don’t necessarily look the part, has a meaningful story that lies beneath its surface.

Bought in a small scale store in Japan, a pair of shoes that mark the first step into the journey that is my life.
