I took up photography 5 years ago.
Preparing for a trip to warm countries, I bought a camera and studied at a classroom photography school.
In the process, it was hard to learn - to let go of yourself, to allow yourself to create and be free in creative ideas. The graduation project failed, or rather it turned out, but not as it was originally intended. At the end of the training, I received a lot of internal tightness. Perhaps that is why I did not take the camera in my hands for a long time and did not shoot for the first time on a trip.
About 4 years ago I started to conduct the first photo shoots (at first free of charge), it was very scary and vulnerable.
Then I started to take money and was a little more satisfied with the results. But apparently not enough, because 2 years ago I completely changed the vector of my profession and went into programming, deciding that photo shoots are pampering and not serious.
After spending a year and a half in a “serious case”, I realized that I didn’t want to anymore. After the new year came the crisis.
This is where the second wind in photography opened up.
These 5 months I am re-acquainting myself with my creative part, I often go alone with a camera on “dates with the city” - this is how I call my walks, where I shoot streets, houses, colors, shapes, people. I catch in them a special state that I have not experienced before, as if I fall into a cloud of love and create from it. I feel like it frees and opens me.
