I am Apes.

My journey with photography began when I picked up an old film camera at a garage sale. I didn't know the technicalities of ISO or aperture, but I knew I wanted to capture the feeling of a moment before it faded.

Today, I specialize in lifestyle and street photography, looking for the authentic human experience in a digitally curated world. My style is defined by high contrast, deep shadows, and raw emotion.

When I'm not shooting, you can find me hiking the nearest mountain trail or brewing excessively strong coffee.
