My photography story

As far as I remember, I started to be interested in photography around the year 2010, when I discovered how fun it can be to look at the world through the lens. Thanks to my father and my high school friend L., I spent a lot of time shooting and filling memory cards with tons of photos. With L., we spent evenings scrolling through Flickr, being excited about each new photo published by our favorite photographers. One of them was Olivia Bee, barely known at that time, who is today's world-famous photographer. I felt so inspired!

In 2020, I still have the same curiosity and desire to photograph, and especially you - people! What I love about portrait photography is the work with people, because to make a great portrait that uncovers the personality, you first need to see the person's character. That requires some time, a little chat, before you get to know the person better. I've met so many interesting people thanks to photography, I can tell! That's the added value I see in it. Photography not only helps me to find patterns and navigate myself in today's world, but it also brings so many new viewpoints to my life that I can't imagine living without it anymore.
