Some words about me
My passion for the photography began when I was 8 years old. I remember my summer breaks in the photo lab with my aunt, who was a professional photographer. In the dark room, I was mesmerized by the “magic” that brought the images to life on the white paper. I remember the thrill of buying my first camera (Lomo Smena Symbol), then the first flash, the first color film… Many things had changed since that time – color films made everything to look so real, film cameras were replaced by digital, mirrorless replaced DSLR, new lenses, new sensors, and more, and more…
The only thing that never changed is my passion for photography – the magic of colors and light, the moments you capture and preserve for the future generations. My goal is to share with you the energy, uniqueness and magical beauty of some of these moments – the way I saw them with my eyes. I believe that a good picture is like a good joke – “if you have to explain it – then it’s not that good.” So no more words; go forward and take the journey – hope you enjoy my art.
