Who am I?

My name is Francisco Barroso Cahungo, and I’m a media engineering student at HEIG-VD. I’ve always been fascinated by the art that emanates from a painting or a drawing—that ability to move us with just a few strokes. But it’s only recently that I’ve discovered that photography possesses exactly the same magic. By freezing moments on film, we capture a raw, authentic emotion that can tell a thousand stories.

I’m no expert photographer, far from it! At first, I struggled myself to make sense of the jungle of lenses, brands and technical specifications. I spent hours searching for information scattered all over the web, navigating between conflicting opinions and overly complex guides. It was this frustration that gave rise to Photolens.

My real aim? To save photographers like you hours of time by bringing together essential information in a clear, accessible and authentic way.
