"Let me show you the world in my eyes"
I feel like a hunter who goes hunting for the little moments of people on the street
"Let me show you the world in my eyes" – Depeche mode - The song I like the most and the band I love the most. If only I could give you a little moment of how I look at the world through photography - I did mine
My name is Hila, I'm 40 years old, from Israel. I have a master's degree in family counselling and a bachelor's degree in psychology. Perhaps this can explain my attraction to street photography - to look at people - to see behaviors and to freeze this moment.
One of my favorite things is music - so when I hold a camera I put music in my ears and feel that I'm dancing in the street with the camera -I've always wanted to be a dancer but I'm too much of a cliché to that. I fell in love with photography some years ago, I had a hard time in my life and someone suggested that I start filming myself on a mobile phone - he told me that someone did a photographic project of Salafi every day for a whole year and that helped her connect to herself…So that's how you started to shoot - I learned about light and I learned about angles and most importantly I learned that I have a passion for photography
Street photography is a passion I can not explain - it revives me - I feel like a hunter who goes hunting for the little moments of people on the street - it's magic - to catch the moment and I'm the wizard who creates it. That's how photography makes me feel like everything: a dancer, a hunter, and a magician. And in the end, I just want you to see my view of the world as I see it
