Back in 2023, something pulled me toward Iran, even though I had no personal connection to the country. I decided to follow my feeling and what I discovered was nothing like the image I had carried from the news. Instead of chaos or conflict, I found peace and some of the kindest people I've ever met. This trip made me want to hold onto these moments, to capture them, and to share the reality I saw that are so different from what people usually imagine when they think of Iran.
