Hi, I’m Junu!

I’m a photographer studying engineering and entrepreneurship at the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign. Besides photography, in my free time I enjoy running, cycling, and visiting new places whenever I can.

I started photography as a means to preserve my own memories and to capture my own experiences in the world. It enables me to look back and remind myself of all the different places I’ve been and live through precious memories once again. Naturally, my friends were a large part of this and at some point, they made me realize that I had the ability to capture the experiences of others and allow them to revisit some of their cherished memories as well.

I’ve experimented with lots of different types of photography, and each has taught me different things about what it means to be a photographer. From travel photography that highlighted the importance of capturing unique locations to portrait photography where my photography became a medium to let the person behind the photo shine.

This led me to where I am now as a photographer, someone who works not only to preserve the moments in his own life but those of others as well. I hope to be able to work with you soon and make your life just as memorable as I’ve made mine!
