Rooted in Place

This film photography project explores the deep connection between place, memory, and identity. Inspired by the idea that the essence of locations shape who we are—spaces of belonging, nostalgia, transformation, and meaning. Shot on film, the project embraces the organic, unpredictable beauty of analog photography, mirroring the way memories fade, shift, and evolve over time.

Whether intimate or expansive, familiar or fleeting, each frame tells a story of the landscapes that hold us, the spaces we return to, and the unseen threads that tie us to the world around us.

Place is the fabric of our lives, memory and identity are stitched through it.
