I studied a BA in Economics and an MA in History and traveled for many years. When I was 30, I discovered photography. Photography is now my language for telling stories.” “I started photography at 30, having never touched a camera before, so it took me a few years to master the basics. Photography is a constant process of trial and error, pushing you to evolve. Since I struggled to get assignments or paid work, I focused on personal projects, which allowed me to develop my own unique style and voice. In the end, failure has been my best teacher,” responded Irina. “When I first saw the horses line up, I thought it would be interesting to capture their mane alongside someone’s hair, so I quickly asked the nearest woman to pose. It wasn’t until after I took the shot that I realized her hair matched the horse’s perfectly!” wrote Irina. “The biggest challenge is to stay true to myself, resisting trends or cultural pressures that can dictate what, who, and how I should photograph. My creative freedom is more important to me than securing mainstream publications or grants, even if I risk being outed or unemployed,” explained Irina. The photographer also shared what she would like for people to take away from her photographs. “I hope people smile.” Follow Bored Panda on Google News! Follow us on Flipboard.com/@boredpanda!
