Would you consider yourself a hobbyist or a paid<br />
professional? Surely it's not just a hobby, but I've had<br />
almost a year's break, so I'm rebuilding my contacts, my<br />
portfolio, so everything goes in the right direction again.<br />
What has been your most memorable session and why?<br />
It would be sesson from 2008, when I took my mate to a<br />
spontaneous photo in white flowers. This photo has<br />
made such a fury on the net that surpassed my wildest<br />
expectations. Since then, my career has developed at a<br />
great pace.<br />
What has been the biggest source of inspiration in your<br />
work? Before a session I like to browse pictures of my<br />
favorite photographers, it turns me into action, I want to<br />
be as good as they are. I’m also inspired by the female<br />
body, at every session I try to pay tribute to their<br />
direction.<br />
Nikon or Canon? Favorite lens? I am currently working<br />
on Nikon and the Sony mirrorless camera. My favorite<br />
lens on which I usually work is 50mm 1.8. I often take<br />
pictures with an analog camera, I like Zenit 12xp and<br />
have a lot of sentiment because it belonged to my dad<br />
before.<br />

What is one piece of advice you would like to offer a<br />
new photographer looking to start their own business?<br />
First of all, you need a lot of practice. I know that<br />
equipment is not the cheapest, but if you think about<br />
taking photos seriously, then you have to be aware that<br />
with the time of amateur or half professional digital SLRs<br />
will not suffice you. I started to take pictures of my<br />
colleagues and it were great photo shooting lessons. And<br />
never ever try to copy other photographers. Be yourself,<br />
be artists who will be the model for others.<br />
What do you think of our new magazine? I think it's<br />
great! I'm very happy that you wanted to interview with<br />
me and show my work among so many talented people. I<br />
am very pleased. I keep my fingers crossed for you and I<br />
will keep a close eye on you for sure!<br />
