How it started







I had my first camera when I was 8. It was my biggest wish although I had no clue, how it works. I just liked the idea of 'stealing the time'.But after putting a film into the camera turned out to be challenge of my life,I set it aside for another time.

At high school I decided that now it's the time and what I want to study is photography. Luckilly, I secured a place at the Photography Faculty at the Warsaw University. It made me feel extremely happy but I still have the same problem: no technique.

That's why I took part in summer workshops in Hirschluch, near Berlin, directed by a popular German photographer Harald Hauswald  ( http://www.harald-hauswald.de/). The 2 weeks of intensive course taught me, besides 'the patience of Job', the whole photographic process, and started the passion for the analog photography.

Above, you can see my first self- developed photos. They are not  masterpieces and I'm not a professionalist. I just want the people, while looking at my pictures, to feel what I feel taking them- bliss and calmness.

  1. The first one that opens the album and the last one that closes it are the most magical for me. Keep on doing it, you're the best!
