Personal Artwork

I’m a total photography addict and always have a camera with me, for every moment that I see something in this world that raises questions, answers questions or just looks so damned amazing!

I’m a street photographer blended with landscape photography. I can mix them and separate them but also I love a good sunset, love nothing more than walking the streets and shooting whatever excites my eyes. I have thousands of pieces of artwork.

Life in a War Zone

A documentary photography and film project exploring how the people in Kyiv and Lviv, Ukraine manage to live in a war zone. With bombs, drones and missiles falling from the sky and the constant threat of death and serious injury, how on Earth are they coping?

This collection consisting of 6 individual photo essays, combined to create a larger project looks at ‘Life in a War Zone’.
