WHAT DO YOU DO FOR A LIVING AND WHAT ARE YOU CURRENTLY WORKING ON?
I’m a graphic and motion graphic designer. Currently I’m art director on a Christmas commercial for the National Lottery (in Serbia).
WHY WERE YOU DRAWN TO PHOTOGRAPHY?
I got involved with photography when I was little. My grandpa was a photographer so I find it very amusing, sitting in a room and analyzing old family photos. I love to analyze things and photography is the perfect medium for me.
WHEN AND HOW DID YOU START TAKING PHOTOS?
I started three years ago. I bought an SLR. It was just a question of time. I didn’t know a thing about digital cameras, but it’s easy if you know what you want to achieve. You just have to experiment.
WHO IS YOUR FAVORITE PHOTOGRAPHER OR DIRECTOR AT THE MOMENT?
I find very inspiring the work of Noah Kalina, Ryan McGinley, Eric Percher, Graham Miller…
YOUR FAVORITE SONG OR BAND?
Currently Hypnotic Brass Ensemble, Quasimode, Cat Power, Cole Porter, Husky Rescue, Julie London, Blackalicious, and Mos Def.
