About Me

I am an actress by profession currently living in Berlin, Germany. It all started some years ago in Greece, the country where I come from. I discovered photography for myself as a means of artistic expression, and it became my new passion ever since then. Taking pictures allowed me to follow the curiosity I have for people with the same fervency I feel when working as an actress. Acting and photography share mutual roots: curiosity and observation. The street is a stage where I can observe people and freeze a special moment with my camera. In these moments, I follow my instinct. Still, I learn through my way of exploring every day a little more about the seemingly endless possibilities of photographic expression that then flows into my work.
