WE ARE PHOTOGRAHERS!


We Are Photographers!

We dedicate our lives to art and photography. Our job is to capture the ordinary and reveal the special moments. We grab a second in life or a fleeting moment of design just to make it lasting. We bring past to present and moments to lasting impressions.

We are the visual writers, sharing with the viewers ordinary moments of life (Documentary Photography) or compose photographic stories (Portraiture, Fashion Photography).
Our eyes are like tools, they enable us to see the hidden values and stories creating impressions and feeling which are not obvious at the beginning.
Have you ever wonder who the person in that picture is?


We Are Photographers! is a project based around the idea of the identity and the way we perceive others, as well as exploring the relationship between Photographer, Model and Viewer.


With this project I decided to create body of work which shows the other side of our job.
I have asked 5 great photographers to pose for me and for once to be on the other side of the camera. We are all unique but in the same time I wanted to create a series of images as neutral as possible. Therefore I've asked them not to show any feelings, like smiling or 'playing' with the camera.
It is a series of 5 color- passport style photographs, taken in the studio with a 5x4 view camera and a color negative film.

The pictures of 'We Are Photographers!' came from my observation of life and my fascination with other people's work.

This project is dedicated to my friends and fellow photographers, who are great inspiration to me.

Thank you all!
