You know when people say they have to write something down to realise it has actually happened… last couple of weeks have been quite surreal, I don’t even think writing helps me realise what is happening… My Exhibition Opening night, the talks with visitors, the meetings with the models behind the portrayers, the talks with […]
Read more "Exhibition Opening, work in progress"Ichtys – The Fisherman’s Daughter – Exhibition Research time I never thought how much preparation may be required to make an exhibition happen before I started organising one… The choice of location and venue is maybe one of your most important decisions that would define the success of your exhibition. Of course there are several things […]
Read more "How to Prepare a Photo Exhibition"Dear reading friends, I’ve missed you. I’ve been so busy organising my first photography exhibition: Ichtys – The Fisherman’s Daughter. Feel free to pass by – it will be on all through July. I’ve got to tell you it’s a bit like a magical box new and new things keep coming up that need to […]
Read more "Ichtys – Exhibition"I woke up early one morning two weeks ago and while washing my face I noticed a small mole on my chin. That wasn’t there before! Or was it? Where did it come from? Why? I know moles can appear from the sun but this one did not choose to appear during the 20-something years […]
Read more "Metamorphosis"It’s the Fashion Photographer’s personal view speaking here. I was thinking for some time it might be useful to share some information on starting with modelling as I often work with models on their first portfolio photo-shoot and it might be a challenge making your way without some guidance what first steps to take.

Read more "Modelling – where do I start from?"We have seen numerous ‘zombie’ caricatures of the moden day people with mobile phones stuck to their hands, their souls leaking into the little light boxes and leaving them listless to the ‘real life’ happening around. Perhaps there is some extend of truth in this but I am willing to look on the bright side […]
Read more "Why #selfies are good"This is my first post for the new year and this year I haven’t made a list with resolutions. I have the ones left from the previous two and I think that sometimes you just need to stop for a second, look what you’ve already achieved and see what more you can do and what […]
Read more "How to be successful in 2016 (and not only)"I didn’t fulfil even half of my last year’s resolutions. But I did try and it has been a bit of a frustrating journey. However, I had my closest people making everything better and reminding me not to give up. For next year I would need more patience and persistence. I would like to promise […]
Read more "Resolutions"It finally feels like Autumn is here to stay. I love the mild sunshine in the sunsets, the streets decorated with red, orange, brown, maroon and deep yellow fallen leafs storing sweet scent of nectar. It’s like the nature is dressed in nostalgia dancing with the wind under the subtle melody of fallen raindrops. I […]
Read more "Festive vibes"I have now been networking with creatives from the Fashion and Art industry for over 7 years and I see quite frequently in my newsfeed ‘warnings’ from models about an unprofessional or even abusive behaviour from some photographers. Being faced with domestic abuse in the past myself, I am extremely sensitive to any form of violence […]
