About MeAn amateur photographer and doctor, born and brought up on a tiny Mediterranean island called Malta. Since July '16 I have been living and working in Scotland.


Photography is my means of bringing to life a world of thoughts, dreams and emotions that otherwise only exist in my mind. It nurtures my artistic side which is constantly seeking to create, whilst simultaneously helping me discover myself. Combined with my insatiable thirst for adventure, knowledge and new experiences, photography is also my means of artistically documenting my travels, allowing me to immortalize scenes and moments which inspire me.

Nature and music are perhaps my two biggest sources of inspiration. I love to think, wander, experiment and debate. I happily take photographs of various genres - essentially whatever it takes to materialize my ideas, whichever inspirational scene presents itself.


There are times when I'm creating scenes from scratch, with a specific image perfectly sketched out in my mind; other times I'm out searching for them, especially thriving on serendipity and unplanned encounters. Whatever the case, I love to make the most of natural available light and capture something meaningful. I also love to play with colour which I find absolutely fascinating.

Photography and medicine aside, I spend plenty of time listening to music, reading online articles and researching random stuff. I'm a big animal lover and do miss my 6 adorable bunnies that I had to leave back in Malta. I'm often lost in thought and daydreams, and love tea and sweets. I adore travelling and enjoy occasionally drawing, sketching and playing guitar. While certainly enjoying my time alone, I do also very much enjoy socializing and engaging in conversation with interesting people from all over the world. I live to constantly learn and try new things.


I've been on dA for over six years (initially as x-Sassy-x). deviantArt has been my home throughout my entire journey of my initial budding, and eventual blossoming, of my passion for photography.
