Since childhood, a camera has been my way of seeing the world. I’ve spent years capturing stories through my lens. With this loan, I can keep growing—investing in gear that lets me work freely and independently.
Micro lending, Macro Impact
The film and TV industry is shifting and freelancers are now expected to own their own gear. It’s a major investment, but it opens new doors. With this loan, I’ll be able to work on long-term documentary films and commercial shoots with small teams, growing both creatively and economically.
My business - My spark
From childhood darkrooms to national TV sets, my path has always been visual storytelling. I’ve shot music videos, series, and festival-featured films, and was nominated for Best Cinematography in 2021 for the series “Shakshuka.” I love capturing emotion, truth, and life—frame by frame.
A few more words
I live in Emek Hefer, a peaceful, rural area in central Israel. I love the quiet, the open fields, and the slower pace of life. But like many freelancers, I faced months of halted work during the war, on top of major shifts in the film industry. I’m now rebuilding, expanding my creative reach, and working toward stability for my family and my career.
