ABOUT ME

Hi, I'm Alina, an artist and photographer based in Amsterdam.

I have been working in the creative field for over 10 years. I started my career as a graphic designer and illustrator. Over time, I transitioned to working on my creative projects and offering photography services for small brands and hospitality businesses, which I'm currently focused on.

ME AS A PHOTOGRAPHER

My interest in photography started years ago while I was studying in art college. I then gained some knowledge and practiced photography while completing my bachelor's degree. Since then, I have been doing it for myself, and in 2024, I took this interest more seriously and started taking freelance photography projects.

MY BACKGROUND

I studied at the College of Art and the Academy of Art in Belarus,  where I had the opportunity to explore various creative disciplines, including photography (both analogue and digital), visual brand identity, painting, drawing, composition, magazine and book design, as well as colour theory. Those eight years in a creative learning environment provided me with a strong foundation and cultivated my keen eye for detail and beauty.
