Nicolas Raphael Papageorgiou

You can call me Nraow. Most of people know me as Raphael, while the people closest to me call me Nicos - and I come from a small village in Western Macedonia, Greece.
I was born in 2002 and I started my journey in photography in 2017. My very first photography with a camera was of a praying mantis - a small moment from nature that unkowingly marked the beginning of a long personal exploration through images.
Photography for me, is not simply about documenting the outside world. When I look at scene, I  instictively turn inward first. What I try to capture is the emotion that emerges within e at the moment I encounter an image.
