My journey into photography began with a Soviet Zenit film camera. Leaving for America, a friend made a small gift that changed my life.
Soon enough my romance with photography become something more as I set about capturing the beauty that goes unnoticed day-to-day.
Photography, I discovered, reveals the profound in everything, from a child’s smile to a woman’s body to even a cracked cup.
As I explored the medium and experimental further, I embraced alternative photography. In infrared, ambrotype, cyanotype, and gum bichromate photography, I found doors into new worlds.
I also unearthed the secrets of far-flung countries, marrying a camera’s potential with my openness to foreign cultures and their traditions to create unforgettable landscape shots that never fail to take you there.
Whether at home or abroad, I seek out the fascinating in the mundane, seizing on such moments to produce unique images.
