Artist Feature: Lee Seung Hyun

I am Seunghyun Lee, also called Lizzyeye from South Korea. I try to capture organic moments through portraiture. I discover the model’s little charms and quirks by getting to them through conversation, and through this process they become comfortable enough to bring out their inner beauty. I build my own stage where anything is possible and watch how it plays out, creating an atmosphere for all things to flow naturally. 
I focus on the dignity and strength of women, I try to portray them as proud and empowered in a society where women are compared consistently. 
I pull inspiration from many aspects of my life. Movies from my childhood, people I meet in passing and the sky above me. I express these inspirations through my images. 
I do not know much about dreams, but one thing is for sure, when we pursue a dream it drives us forward. We seek the thrill of achieving our goals and seeing our efforts come to fruition.
Although my dreams may not come true right now, if I set a small goal every day and live step by step I can achieve anything.
