City of Frames：Los Angeles Through a Cinematic Lens
City of Frames：Los Angeles Through a Cinematic Lens
Los Angeles is more than just a city—it's a living film set, where reality and fiction often blur. In this series, I explore the everyday streets of LA through the lens of cinema, drawing inspiration from the visual poetry of films like La La Land and the city’s long-standing relationship with storytelling.
My focus lies in capturing fleeting human moments—quiet glances, shadowed alleyways, and bursts of sunlight on pavement—that feel like stills from a movie. Each image is composed not just as a photograph, but as a frame from a larger, imagined narrative.
Street photography in LA carries a unique atmosphere: it’s a place where everyone seems to be both living and performing. By leaning into this cinematic duality, I aim to reveal the dreamlike layers beneath the surface of daily life.
This collection is my visual love letter to the city's contradictions—its solitude and glamour, its chaos and calm—and a reflection of my passion for both photography and film as powerful forms of storytelling.
