* Photography
* “Ambitious, proud, apathetic, feminine, in love, absorbed with art, lazy, dancer, with low self-assertion…”
* “Many do photography nowadays as its kind of an easiest way to make art, to demonstrate ability to a natural creativity. There is no need in any special skills to press the button. It started exactly with the same idea for me. I have loved art scene since teens and I guess unawares was looking for a way to join the elite. I had started with taking pictures of a friend during our walk talks and then experimenting with them in Corel Photo. Then I discovered Photoshop – a stuff of a lot of fun and a lot of work. I have learned doing photography together with editing it in PS, so it has become an integral part of my work. I took every opportunity to do the photography. But not random one; it was always maped out and staged every bit as an awkward imitation of a high fashion photo shoot. I loved doing it. And in time I realized I just couldn’t imagine myself not doing it. So it turned into the thing…I do…do the best, love the most, and see as mine to do.”
* I’m not sure if I had done my first serious shot it yet. It is all about progress, there is no first for me and I hope there will be no last; every next one becomes more serious for me than the previous one. I am never satisfied with what I do and it makes me want to push my work to the next level with every shot.”
* “There is no perfect model for me in general. Just one that is easy to work with. Uncomplaining and creative perhaps… But there is always a perfect model for a particular shot.”
* She will never visualise porn and senselessness. And paparazzi.
* She gets inspired by : Fashion, music, ambience. But inspiration kind of catches me napping now and then apart from everything.
