For me photography is a form of art
I'm lithuanian, born in Vilnius, capital of Lithuania. There were no artists in my family, but we always loved culture and art. As well as I’ve been working in the field of culture for many years. As far as I remember myself, I always liked to observe the environment - people, events.
When I've picked up the camera in my hands, I've noticed that although I enjoy various forms of photography, most of all I am attracted to photograph people in their natural environment, when they are real, not pretending or posing.
Street photography has become a true discovery for me, an opportunity to capture true life, telling a story and connecting this with creativity using light, colors and shapes. Street photography is also a challenge that makes me overcome my shyness and timidity to get closer to people and learn how to show their daily activities, emotions, reactions in a respectful way. There are many possibilities in a street photography.
When someone asks me about my own style of photography, I just try to explain that I'm on a journey trying to look for and learn everyday with open mind and heart in a real life. As well as I admire and rejoice in every new discovery.

Street photography has become for me a real discovery, adventure and true enjoyment.
It is so exciting when you can reach people and transfer the message without the limits of language and,
if you are lucky they understand you.
