“ The camera makes you forget you're there. It's not like you are hiding but you forget, you are just looking so much.”

_Annie Leibovitz - American photographer_

This series of photos captures the personality of my aunt, whom I see in her life exists not only the old stereotypes of an Asian woman but also the breath of youthful and modern lifestyle. I exploit my aunt's life through the camera lens as honestly as possible.
She is in her 40s. She has moved in and lived for four years in Germany. Currently, her main job now is housewife and support of her husband's business.
