Kid begging for money downtown. A personal dilemma I faced when a little boy was tapping me on the arm. My heart aches since the children around me appear to have so very little. So is it a good thing to give to kids who beg? Is it really helping? I don't have an answer. I just gave him some food.

Biography
International award winning photographer currently based in Athens, Greece, and the Founder of CUT and DRY. She is an official member of Moments Collective and Progressive Street, with a degree in BBA.
Artist's Statement:
I firmly believe that street photography undoubtedly effects our capacity to empathize. Also, it can help us connect with people worldwide in that way. And that's important.
I always try to capture the essence of a person in urban and rural environments in an attempt to preserve what time steals but photos can save.
What I photograph is defined by what I believe in.
