PHOTOGRAPHER I am a 36 years old dreamer, born and raised in an artsy family in the northern part of Romania, where my love for landscaping and passion to create things with my own hands have always been nurtured and encouraged by my parents. I have been living and working in London for the past 9 years now, pursuing better career opportunities that would have been unreachable had I remained back home in Romania. I have been nursing fantasies about photo shooting art since I was a young boy. Back home, I used to watch my father painting and create his amazing drawings on canvas. I first dreamt of becoming an artist, just like my father …it never happened, I felt I was never as good as he was. I pay homage to his talent and artistic spirit through my work today. I started releasing my creative flows in photography about 6-7 years ago when out of the sudden I began collecting emotions through the lens of my camera. Educated in mechanical engineering, with a sense for exact sciences and geometry of things in life, I feel that I can capture specific emotions when the right angle of color and light it’s applied. The black-and-white photography segment is the one niche that I best identity myself with…with a bit of an ‘eternal snapshot’ twist. I like capturing the quintessence of someone’s inner beauty and nostalgia. I feel I have a different experience than the classic stream as my models often tell me that I am able to metaphorically transpose their souls into black and white memorabilia, which lasts for eternity. All my portraits capture a unique artistic trait, they all, in fact, defined in the clearest and simpler way my creative patterns.
