I was born on 18th February 1971 in Ptuj/Slovenia/Europe. The interest for photography has been with me since the early childhood. My father used to like it and obviously took photos as well. Every time my family would go on a holiday or trips we would also take pictures of ourselves or the places we visited. At home we have a large archive of photos of me and my brother from different periods of our lives. I got my first camera when I was 13 years old. Since then taking photos has been one of my favourite hobbies. Through time it actually became more than that. It is a kind of obsession. In the last 4 or 5 years photography became more serious for me. I’m a student of Sociology at Faculty of Arts in Ljubljana and study of Sociology of media has driven me into deeper study of the history of photography, its respective techniques, uses, and consequently brought me to my first group and solo exhibitions. I have exhibited mostly in my hometown and in Melbourne, Ljubljana, Maribor, Kranj, Radovljica…
