Who’s taking a look at your Instagram accounts (@kikodionisios_photograph and @kiko_ dionisios_official), will recognize your passion for photos, men, dancing and music. How did you start with photography and what happened that you’ve specialized on male art photography? When I was a kid, I always took photos of my family. I‘ve always had fun directing myself and others. My passion for Male Art Photography is that in my eyes it is very PURE, I just need a model and let‘s go!

If you’d be allowed to have 5 belongings only, which ones would you choose?
Quite a 10! ;-D
What childhood dream already came true?
