Andjela Preradovic is a photographer based in Brooklyn. She immigrated from Bosnia and Herzegovina to study at The University of the Arts in 2017. After moving to the United States, Andjela soon came to enjoy the beauty of using film cameras to express her creativity. She specializes in portrait photography, with focus on fine art, fashion, and documentary.
Andjela uses the camera as a tool to capture the unique qualities of the people and places around her. Film photography allows her to deeply connect with the work through the meticulous process of self-developing, scanning and printing in the darkroom. The exploration of using historical techniques to develop her photos also entices Andjela, as she believes it could take her current medium to an experimental world. Forever fascinated, she continues to learn, drawing inspiration from spontaneity as well as the visual ambiguity that comes from one's eye meeting the light and chemicals on the film.
