This photography was one of those few when the model understands you perfectly. Not right away, of course. Photographers know how important this is. At first, girls are always embarrassed to pose, not to mention a nude photo shoot, there is always awkwardness, tightness, a test of trust at the beginning. You need to get […]

If you are looking for extreme sports and want to meet with the annual adrenaline rush in a few hours, then you will most certainly like a walking tour to the Western Ukrainian Mlynky Cave. The photos of this unusual place inspired me to make bold to carry out such a spelunking trip. This is […]

Initially, the state intended the geriatric clinics for those who find it difficult to live alone and take care of themselves but in fact it has become a place of captivity. Getting old here more resembles agony. Such homes of elderly people have remained unchanged since the last century and have from 200 to 300 […]

We stop near one of shabby houses, from which Monica is called by an elderly hunchbacked woman. Monica listens attentively to the old woman, takes her arthritic trembling hand and says, “Okay, I’ll help”.

Extreme conditions often prevail at this altitude in winter – hurricane winds simply rip off the slopes, snow and bits of ice fly in the air shelling the face. It is difficult to breathe, visibility is poor, sharp cliffs are lurking, winds create snow cornices. In a short amount of time, you can easily get […]

For the last 5 years, I have been a monitor of the National Preventive Mechanism, within the framework of which monitoring visits are carried out to places of captivity. There are about 5 thousand in Ukraine. An unannounced monitoring visit is when you are not expected to be checked, when you surprise the bewildered staff […]

They are erased from ordinary life and forgotten, their photos won’t get into family albums – you really have no chance to see their photos at all. You will never know about their problems and never hear their dreams – the closeness and remoteness of boarding schools leaves no chance for it. These children will […]

I met Anatoliy in one of the neuropsychiatric boarding schools. Anatoliy is gypsy. In his documents, in the column “nationality” “gypsy” is eloquently stated. For all his conscious life, since childhood, he has been living in various boarding schools for almost 45 years. He knows how to plaster and lay bricks, repair and do various […]

I love color, but some photos look better in black and white. Such pictures convey a special mood, push light and color aside and make you notice lines, geometry, and texture in the first place.
