A great photographer is…..
There are many great photographers I look up to. My favourite are Helmut Newton, Sally Mann, Patrick Demarchelier, Tim Walker and Annie Leibovitz.

I was always interested in art. I fell in love with photography due to posibility of catching every transitory moment. It is magical, I love the sound of the shutter.

I consider studying architecture
How do you promote/ expose your work?
Mostly in web, on my websites.
What do you think about the Internet and how it is affecting the visual communication business?
Internet is a great way for photographers to showcase their work. It is also a neverending inspiration, you can see so many wonderful photographs, get inspired, give and receive advice on techniques…
Explain your creative process in a project? What are usually the challenges and how you go around it?
First of all I think about the concept and write my ideas on the paper. Sometimes I can see how I want the photo to look like but I’m mostly rather spontanous about everything, I decide on the spot to do something completely different. I am unpredictable
How do you think the global economic recession affecting the industry, or the least affecting your assignment/ project?
In my opinion not too much, but I don’t know
Who is the person that you look up to in the professional world? Why so?
