“I was born in Jūrmala and lived there for some time. Recently I moved to Rīga. I am studying in RTU completely not related things to art, but I have graduated academy of music and also finished some art courses. I have a great interest almost in everything and I have my own opinion about any subject but especially I love photography. Although I have quite critical attitude about things that are related to art and photography, I really appreciate fine ones.”

“I just adore this way of capturing moments. I used to shoot a lot of nature photographs but for the last few years my favorite „objects” are people. I am very pleased when I manage to capture the emotions and mood in my photos. I think that these kind of photos are the only way to maintain your emotions and later on partly restore to your mind.

I think my first serious photographs were taken nearby sea when I got my first digital camera. I guess that was the  time I felt that this thing is for me.

Definitely color photos are my favorite. Of course there are some cases when b&w would perfect for particular situation to highlight the mood and composition but I think color photo can store much more information for viewer.

Perfect model for me would be any girl that can fully trust me and also is confident in herself. The photo-shoot must be so easy that there are no pressure from any of the sides.”
