Personal Statement

The IDSS (I document street lifestyle) is a Beersheva based business specializing in documentary photography of man, man's activity and his environment. My ideology says, mix them together, the visual integrity and the artistic quality to recompose the human experience, underlining what is really important and what is not. The dedication, passion, and commitment to excellence is evident in all assignment as well as in the character of the photographer himself .
