I document war not from a distance, but from kitchen tables, hospital corridors and beside fresh graves.
Returning to Ukraine twice every year since the 2022 invasion.
The reason I return
Her name is Anna.
She sits at her father’s grave holding a teddy bear dressed in camouflage. Anna is one of the people who changed me. She is one of the reasons I keep returning.
The war is measured in miles. Its cost is measured in people.

Behind the camera
Some stories won’t let you go.
I’ve survived missile barrages, sat in silence with widows and returned to Ukraine twice every year since the 2022 invasion. Not out of duty, but because some stories won’t let you go.
