Musicians
Photographing young classical musicians is my long-term ongoing project. There is something very compeling in trying to capture the fresh entusiasm and the sensitivity of the young musicians and composers. This is not a trivial task as it requires intimate and ingenious approach that is chalenging but much more rewarding both to the subject and to the photographer. I work with both black and white and color media and use different locations and lighting to bring the unique personality of every subject.

Most young musicians underestimate the power of an artistic portrait in conveying their image and accessing a wider audience for their music. There are so many examples of briliant composers and already established performers featuring on their webpage an inferior photo - usually a snapshot taken during a party or a family outing. Yet a proper photograph is just as important in conveying their image to the public as is thir music!

If you are a classical musician or composer and need an original photo portofolio, please, contact me.
