‘Whether you call me an artist or photographer, it really makes no difference. All I know is that this camera has become a part of who I am, a part of my journey in life,’ says Jefree. Photo: Ann Marie Chandy

This has always been just a hobby, says Orang Asli photographer Jefree Salim about what he does.

“It was the others, the people I came into contact with, who saw beyond that. I never imagined that one day I would get to exhibit my photographs in places like Kuala Lumpur, Penang and Singapore,” he humbly shares.
