some information about me:

"All my life I was ashamed of having a deviated eye. I have always tried to hide it because I was afraid people would think I looked crazy with it.

My left eye doesn't move like it’s supposed to - so I trained myself to adjust the movements of my head in a way that I could see as much as possible on that side and people would rarely notice the disease. Nowadays, I find it kind of funny and I don’t really care a lot about it anymore.

The other day, someone asked why I became a photographer and my answer was "Because I don't trust my eyes" - which is kind of contradictory but still true. So if you ever felt like I was looking past you, it was just my underdeveloped eye."
