“My inspiration for taking pictures is the fact that I get to do small things for myself and get to admire the small things around me. I have always enjoyed the moments when I get to go to places to see those beauties.” Phichaikeawvichit’s quiet and minimal style of photography has captured the interest of many in the social media world, where things can appear busy and oversaturated. For Phichaikaewvichit who also goes by Charlie, photography is a way of getting the experience along the way, either through subjects or the process of capturing it. He wanted his images to show others how things or places around you can be beautiful if you open your heart to their possibility.Â
