Where do you get your ideas from?
Each of my photos is a scene from real life.
That is the perfect source of inspiration
for me because there is so much beauty to
it. Perhaps on my way to work, observing
the world around me could inspire my next
photograph. Of course there are changes that
I add to the reality, such as characters, props,
location, and light... I am constantly involved
in a search for inspiration and ideas. We live
in exciting times. Everything that happens
in our lives is a unique source of inspiration.
There’s no need to steal someone else’s idea.
Rest assured that any artist from the 18th or
19th century is very jealous of us. We can live
anywhere and create anything and show it
around the world. Everything is in our hands.
Your shots seem to have a realness
to them. How much of what you do
is real and how much is done on the
computer?

I spend a lot of time preparing for the
process, so all the effects are real. Of course,
each frame is scanned and edited on the
computer but the base is created on the
filming location. The post-processing on the
computer cannot make anything good if the
original photo is bad.
