About Me
Hi, I'm Mona, a professional photographer with over a decade of experience in the field. My passion for photography stems from my childhood, ignited by my exposure to my father's various cameras. During high school, I delved into professional analog photography, solidifying my love for the medium and my aspiration to pursue it as a career. Throughout my university studies, photography subtly infused every artistic creation I undertook. Upon graduation, I embarked on a professional journey in this field, leading me to where I am today. Alongside my photography endeavors, I've always held a strong desire to share my knowledge with others. When the opportunity to teach arose, I wholeheartedly embraced it and excelled in the role. Teaching photography at a high school provided me with an in-depth understanding of diverse cameras and their functionalities. For me, teaching is not a one-way instruction, but rather a way to open the doors of creativity in the mind. The experience of exchanging information and working with cameras and capturing images has always been and will always be fascinating for me. It is never too late to progress, learn, and evolve.
