My name is Alex Pal and I am a photographer, mostly focusing photographing people with an artistic background, or people that understand photography as an artistic medium. My work starts before the shooting where I typically include my models in the brainstorming sessions. I believe that photography is about the concept and the means you use to support it.

I currently live in Germany but I have been shooting for years around the world, Vancouver, New Orleans, Baltimore, Athens, Dusseldorf and Cologne are some of the cities I have been shooting at.

I hold a Master's Degree in cognitive science, which is new field that studies how information in the brain is represented, how perception works, and how cognitive functions such as attention and emotion give rise to conscience. My background and my understanding of the cognitive functions infuse my creative process.

I like shots to be full of emotions, drama, contrast, open questions.

As a photographer I like shooting in a A to Z process, starting from somewhere and keep working from there to reach my final goal. During that process I always like to explain what I do to keep my models motivated and ready to follow me to that trip.

I rarely shoot TFP but I always like to support new models when needed.
Feel free to write me your ideas or answer your questions.
