Kristaps Hercs Photography

“Born in Jelgava, currently living in Copenhagen,Denmark. Went there to study. I first got interested in photography approx. 4 years ago. Took it up on a more professional level two years ago. I got carried away by photography for it gave me the possibility to catch and capture the moments, emotions and show everyone else things in a way I see them. I like to show things in exact way they really are. Photography is kind of a hobby, but nevertheless in my art life I have participated in several exhibitions and my works have been used in several publications. I try to create the artwork in my mind at first and then capture it, not the other way around, shooting everything I can see.”

“I started shooting with Canon eos film camera, then I bought eos digital camera. With time my photo bag got filled with lenses, flash and other accessories. Now in my photo bag there are tools that allow me to realize ideas which I want to achieve in photographs”

“Ideal model is such, that can put their trust into photographer and doesn’t get shy in front of the camera. I prefer taking photographs of nature and people. When I take pictures of nature, I like the peace it brings and it also is a good way to relax. Others like watching television and I like to go out and take photographs – that is a way to fill my free time. I am quite cautious calling myself a photographer, for there still is a long way to go until I can say I am. For now photography is a hobby”
