BRISANJE MEJA, published by Revija National Geographic Slovenija, May 2024 (Issue 5 - Incredible OCTOPUSES)
The combination of fashion and classic portrait-documentary photography can be extremely interesting and unique, as it simultaneously combines the aesthetics and depth of documenting a person's story. My photographs are not classic portraits, as the strength of light and composition are planned and controlled with purpose in relation to the subject. With a portrait-fashion-documentary approach in photography, I want to show the character of people, their story and current mood.
The use of an artificial light source in photos allows me to emphasize certain characteristics of a person, to play with different photographic styles and allows me to be completely creative. Although the photos are about well-thought-out compositions and the sophisticated use of make-up and costumes, I always photograph people at the moment when they least expect it, because I believe that this is the time when their true "I" comes out.
