Hey! My name is Aimilios Hatzistamou. I'm a hobbyist photographer based in London (originally from France and Greece). I love taking photos in my free time, especially while I'm travelling and fuelled by the burst of inspiration that comes with discovering a new place on earth.
The journey began at an early age when my father, a keen photo enthusiast, started exposing me to his cameras & gear. Things only got more interesting to me, however, when I learned about this weird art form that revolves around sneakily approaching strangers and shooting them from the hip – street photography. I started going on photo walks with my father and his friend Yannis (@mathiou_eyeshot). And while they geeked out on gear, I would be trying to muster the courage to take just that one extra step closer to my subject.
I hope you enjoy the pictures on here – feel free to reach out to me if you have any questions or comments! You can also check out my homepage if you want to learn more about my actual work :)
