About

 

My name is Rakkan and I'm a NYC based Photographer.​

 

I got into photography at a very young age. My first camera was the Kodak disc 4000. Although I started photography a long time ago, I never really focused on the technical aspects. It was more of a diary keeping hobby. I just loved freezing moments.

​

I don't usually like to be defined by a style or a category. I simply capture what I see, or the emotion that I feel, or the memory I want to freeze at that specific moment. I improvise very quickly based on the environment around me. I feed off the surroundings, and the final shot is usually a collection of mind visuals, thoughts, and feelings at that specific moment.

 

Although I shoot in color, I prefer mostly black and white photography.
