In Japan, we have to wash our hands to purify ourselves before making a prayer at the shrine. This is the moment when my son was washing my mom's hands, and it was so beautiful.

Namyoung Park, a mother of two kids, is an amateur photographer capturing the quiet beauty of everyday life through a documentary lens. Rather than staging shots, she aim to preserve the natural atmosphere of each moment, believing that real life holds more poetry than fiction. Her photos are a visual diary of daily fragments — intimate, observational, and deeply human.
