ABOUT ME
I dropped out school, because I didn't learn anything I need in the university. However, I keep reading whether I'm a student or not.
Then I went to Beijing, the capital, to make a living. I did several jobs, like a waiter, a seller, a factory worker, etc. I enjoyed those experiences, which school would never offer.
Later I decided to be a photographer. I went to Beijing Film Academy and audited various courses for two years, where I learned photography though without any degree.
I did several jobs regarding photography, but I found taking photos of children is my favourite. I worked for a children photography company for four years.
However, last year I got bored with the life style as an employee and started my own studio EverKids to do documentary photography.
Now I'm doing a photography project of rural children around the world and I'm gonna show the pictures to the world.
I'm a talkative person and would like to share my life, my culture, and my ideas with you.
PHILOSOPHY
Life is short, play more.
