[\/et_pb_text][et_pb_text _builder_version=”3.19.1″]\"\"<\/p>\n

Here is what Vadim tells about himself and his way to photography:<\/b><\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

I\u2019ve mixed it up over the years \u2013 though I have studied various fields from Cell Biology, to Computer Science; I\u2019ve always been involved with art and photography but had a technical side which helps me today manage my studio. Having rarely taken the easy path in life, I believe obstacles present challenges to build on and promote quick learning. If I had to compare myself to a composer, I would choose Beethoven; things might not always come easily, and I believe my emotional nature comes through my photography with its dramatic counterpoint of light and dark images.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Today, after nearly 10 years a a luxury product photographer, I work with great staff serving amazing clients around the world. In photography I love trying new things, always trying to improve my techniques \u2013 something can always be made better, more efficient \u2013 the product should always look its best.<\/p>\n
