Hey there, I’m Kim-Yen Nguyen. I’m a photographer working and living in Odense, Denmark.

 

My name is Kim-Yen Nguyen. I am a Vietnamese-Danish photographer with a master’s degree in Linguistics and Psychology. I use photography to tell stories of everyday life and portrait the essens of humans.

I work by the lesson of the Thomas Theorem: “If people define situations as real, they are real in their consequences.” The way we reflect on our stories and choose to define them shapes everything.

I enjoy all my photographic rides and honestly believe that curiosity is the driving force behind every meaningful image.

 
 

“if mankind define situations as real, they are real in their consequences”

- Thomas Theorem

 
 

I prefer black & white in photography as it leaves the spectator with imagination on the images colors, origins and moods. My favorite method is the minimalistic approach to shut out all noises - often only with lights and pozing.

As a photographer, I’m very dependent on my eyes, but as a visual artist it is crucial that my imagination never leaves my body. Eyes are for technical adjustments. Imaginations are for deep dives and chasing the hidden images beyond.

Exaggeration is yelling.

Stay Curious,

Kim-Yen Nguyen

I will get lost
…now and then, and sincerely hope friendly people will join me

I get inspired
…by those who don’t exaggerate. I trust the spectators to observe with imagination and emotions. If you are restrained in imaginations or otherwise in life, please don’t restrain others

My humor
…needs some social calibrating. I laugh at my own jokes and seriously need some new material

Hook me up!
