ABOUT ME

One day I accidentally found out that I want to become a photographer. I changed my life and studies and finished a photo school. Right now I try to run a studio from November 2008 with my friends and besides earn a living by being a project manager in the field of environmental management. as I sold my heart to photography once, I have to quit the office-thing as soon as possible...because i think that what one loves, one does the best..
if i am not taking pictures or being a photoshop-nerd I enjoy the company of my friends... travel or listen to music...

some of the everyday snapshots can be seen:

do not get me wrong - I am not a total photomaniac taking pictures every second with a camera grown to my hand.. . just taking a picture when it all comes together - the light, the people and the feeling - it is like a drug and I need it from time to time.
i just want to see what something looks like when it is photographed...

PHILOSOPHY

if you really believe in something other people start believing too

Interests

photography, music, traveling,..reading.. although photo manuals and such can not be counted reading really..but this is unfortunately the literature I have read recently..
Being younger I had this fanatic-thing for horses that little girls often have... thinking I will be once a professional rider..hehehee.. so it happens I go riding once-twice a week to rest my nerves :P and to meet my friend named Kollane (means Yellow in Estonian)who is not the most beautiful horse in the world but still very lovable...
