About Max Plotnikov<\/span><\/h2>\n

<\/p>\n

I started my photography in high school. I\u2019ve been shooting black and white and then color film. It was sort of a background hobby.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

After I graduated I had worked for a product package design studio for about 10 years before I joined Doberman. It was the place where I first met professional product photographers. I was really impressed by what they were doing. Among other things I have been part of food photography, some splash photography etc. That was truly invaluable experience. As I say \u2013 I was really impressed by what our product photographers did but somehow never considered myself being a professional product photographer.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

I came to Doberman with the idea to expand it to fully integrated creative and production studio.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

We turned photography and retouching into something bigger \u2013 casting, stylists, visagists, shooting logistics, 3D graphics.<\/p>\n
