Photographer Robert Lipnicki (London)
Winner of the month
Tell us something about yourself Yes hm, I think I’m quite straightforward. Workaholic, lazy in certain way, dreamer and always Enjoy the extra hour of sleep. Appreciate small things and quality time with family.
Would you consider yourself a hobbyist or a paid professional? Professional and hobbyist.
How and when did you get into photography? I got to photography since I was little, had big inspiration from my grand father. Was little assistant for him on location and in darkroom. But started my photography in 2011.
What has been your most memorable session and why? Every session I do feel butterflies. But I will say most recent one. Imagine, last look, last click, strobe went on fire with heavy smoke, it was a lucky last shot, the way I wanted, emotion and models expression ;)
What does photography mean to you? Photography is a soul relief, instrument to express and create. To paint with a light – if I can say this way. Please briefly describe your photography style for our readers. I would say edgy, creative and elegant. It depends what I want the viewer to feel. Where do you get inspiration from? Honestly I don’t know, from beautiful material I guess, art, architecture, people its usually comes from the top – I have this image in my head which I need to make. Think you in advance what you want in the picture? Always there is a preproduction, but then I go with the flow, as sometimesspontaneous 15 minutes, can create the masterpieces. Studio, on location or both? Both, but lately I enjoy natural light.
What has been the biggest source of inspiration in your work? Many things, something unexplored, different techniques, lightning, to create something different. Willing to learn and deliver something new. The best team, which always helps me to create my vision, and of course my creative partner Stefanija she is my muse. We always brainstorm ideas together. Nikon or Canon? Favourite lens? Nikon, faw lens sigma 35mm What is one piece of advice you would like to offer a new photographer? Skills + hard work will make the best result. Focus on creativity then you will find your path. Robertlipnicki.com www.facebook.com/RobertLipnickiphotography/

BIRDS The story: Birds are the symbol of nature, symbol of freedom, they got different characters and roles... We decided to create an editorial inspired by three different bird characters with a fashion edge: - Owl symbolizes wisdom, peace, and longevity. - Eagle symbolizes power, confidence. - Black-singing bird is melancholic, sad, and dreamy.
