I'm Milton — a writer, artist, photographer, and game developer from Falun, Sweden. Born on March 7th, 2006, I've spent most of my life finding different ways to express the same thing: a deep curiosity about the world and the people in it.
I'm currently working as a substitute teacher while building projects across every creative medium I can get my hands on — developing apps, writing poems and debate articles, taking photos, and exploring how the human mind works.
Born in Falun, Sweden. Early life defined by games, cartoons, and sports.
Started writing short stories and experimenting with game design tools. Built a parallel love for fiction and programming.
Always loved taking pictures, but had only used my phone until 2024 when I finally got my first camera–the Sony Nex3n. Started shooting street, nature, and portraits.
Developing Android apps with ML components, writing debate articles and poetry, playing with AI, and working toward studies in Computer Science and Psychology.

After 50 days of photography, here’s what I’ve learnt ✨
After 50 days of photography, here’s what I’ve learnt ✨:
Is the object inside your frame centered? And if you have a frame inside the frame—is the object centered in the second frame?
When I use the rule of thirds, then I look into the square in the middle and ask myself if I would’ve been able to crop away all the other squares while still maintaining the feeling I want to invoke. And if I can, then my object has good positioning. Otherwise I’d need to crop it in another way. (This excludes the Times when one uses framing, AKA, having a frame within a frame).
Instead of capturing an entire scene, I try to only capture the specific parts of a scene I want to include in the image. This way, the viewer’s eye will instantly see what I want them to see; I crop out all the unnecessities. And I also try to capture a feeling instead of a scene.
I shoot with my dominant eye (placing the viewfinder against my dominant eye) because when I don’t, the camera doesn’t capture exactly what I see (I might be picky, but those small details—well, they aren’t small). I’m also thinking about where I’m looking, exactly, and then I point the center of the camera’s frame to that exact spot; this helps me balance the image.
Instead of focusing on the exposure meter to be on 0 (it’s a good rule of thumbs though), I try to change my settings so the camera sees what I see, or what I envision; this way I can capture bright highlights and dark shadows—or just what I see.
I try to always balance an image. It’s a bit difficult to explain but if you’d imagine all the objects in the image to have a weight and you’d put your finger on the bottom center of the image, then ask yourself if the image would be tipping to one side or feel stable; If it tips you need to change your cropping.
And lastly, one advice I hear all photographers mention: just take pictures. Honestly, you shouldn’t underestimate that advice because it really helps! :)
I hope these advices will help you who read this! :D
