Cao! Nice to have you stop in.
I am from the Former Yugoslavia and work in B+W and COLOUR FILM- traditionally print and develop my own negatives and prints. I do not use photoshop as a tool in my artworks. All works are in camera, this is something I am actively achiveing when shooting.

I have a strong background in visual arts, and design and enjoy spending time working with other artists and creatives. I have a Bachelor of Design in Photography from the Alberta College of Art + Design and have been published in local and national magazines. I have also had the pleasure of working with numerous organizations, businesses, creatives and artists.

My primary focus in portraiture is illustrating a personality through light, texture, expression and location. I love to work with the conbination of nude in nature. I work out of a studio in downtown Calgary and find inspiration working both in the studio and on location.

I have a keen interest in curatorial practices, ethics, literature, films, human rights and music and am inspired by a variety of music, nature, artworks and history.
I enjoy collaborating with other artists so feel free to message me if you have something in mind, or just say hello.

Thank you for visiting,
Sanja.
