On the Playground
A moment of playfulness captured in the sun,
A reminder of freedom in a structured life.
Young boys play football at a basketball field during their school break in Madaba, Jordan. The moment is photographed during the middle of the day with short and sharp shadows, giving the moment accentuating the drive of the boys.

Rather than documenting places, I photograph people: familiar moments that anyone can recognize, whether they've been to Jordan or never left their hometown. No models, no staging, no AI.
I never studied photography. I learned to see people as a nurse in mental health care where dignity shows up in the quietest moments, in the most unexpected places. That's what I search for, in every photograph I make.
