I AM | SLATERY

As far back as I can remember I took my first picture with a plastic Diana Lomo camera, probably at the age of 5.
Since then I was always fascinated and attracted by photography in all its forms. I tired all sort of films and cameras, and I experimented all sorts of things with digital photography as soon as the first digital cameras arrived in Europe in the early 90's.
I am also an internationally awarded film director with more than 25 years of experience in the film industry. Graduated from the London International Film School, I managed to work also as director of photography and lighting cameraman. This opportunity raised enormously my technical skills as a still photographer.
In the recent years I studied colour grading for motion pictures and digital post-production techniques using Lightroom and Photoshop.
But why then black and white analogue film?
Because, due to its unique and complex creative process, it's what for me comes closest to pure art.
