I WAS BORN IN BOSNIA AND HERZEGOVINA, RAISED IN ATLANTA, GEORGIA. I AM AN ENFP ON THE MYERS BRIGGS TEST AND A TYPE 4 ENNEAGRAM.
I LOVE ART AND HISTORY. I ENJOY LEARNING NEW THINGS ABOUT FAMILIAR PLACES. I LOVE THE FEELING OF WHOLEHEARTEDLY UNDERSTANDING THE CITY I AM TRAVELING TO AND THE EMOTION AND HURT THAT THE CITY HAS BEEN THROUGH.  

TO ME, PHOTOGRAPHY IS A COMPLEX AND MULTIDIMENSIONAL COMBINATION OF ART AND HISTORY. A PHOTOGRAPH IS A FORMAT THAT EVOKES DIFFERENT INTERPRETATIONS AND FEELINGS FROM DIFFERENT EYES AND HEARTS. MY JOB IS TO CREATE NOT JUST A BEAUTIFUL PHOTOGRAPHIC DOCUMENT, BUT ALSO A UNIQUE EXPRESSION OF WHO YOU ARE IN A WAY THAT CAN’T BE TRANSLATED BY MEMORY AND WORDS AND PASSED DOWN THROUGH GENERATION. I WANT YOU TO BE ABLE TO WHOLEHEARTEDLY RELIVE THE IMPORTANT MILESTONES THAT YOU TREASURE IN YOUR LIVES.

MEET MINELA

I AM SO GLAD YOU'RE HERE
