I grew up in Riga, Latvia. Having started my photographic career as a fashion photographer, for the past years I have turned my sight towards more personal projects. In 2008, I received a BA in photography from the Arts Institute at Bournemouth (England) and currently I’m finishing my studies in Helsinki with a Master in Photography at Taik (Aalto University of Art and Design). My photographs have been exhibited in Latvia, Lithuania, U.K., France, China and Belgium. I’m also a recipient of the following awards: Nikon Discovery Awards (2008), c/o Berlin Talents (2013) and Burn Magazine Grant (2013)
