Photography, camera operating, video recording lessons.
I am a Slovak professional freelance photographer and videographer based in Brussels. I specialize in event photography and in capturing human motion with more than 8 years of a professional career. In the beginning, I was a self-educated photographer, but in 2016 I graduated and got a BA degree in Photography from a University in the UK.
I teach a hands-on class. We go through theory and directly apply it in practice. I live close to a large park, where we can find all kinds of subjects. From landscapes, portraits, abstracts, animals, night...
My aim is to provide a good knowledge for photographers from pre-productions all the way through production and offer some post-production techniques/tips as well.
There is a lot to learn! I believe in a constant education myself since the technology keeps on evolving.
I use Nikon DLSR and SLR cameras but the same principals apply to any kind of DSLR, SLR, mirrorless cameras.

Technical and creative photography for beginners and enthusiastsPhotography allows us to look at the world differently and to express ourselves without using our most common means of communication: words. My teaching method is simple: first, we identify together what you are looking for. Are you new to photography? Let's cover the basics of settings, photography theory, and get some inspiration before we hit the field. Want to hone your skills? I can offer you valuable advice on taking photos. And I can also push you to your limits with more intense methods, such as the challenge of 500 photos per week, which will allow you to learn very quickly.

Graduated from INRACI and Master in writing at ULB, I will be happy to share my teaching and my experiences with you.My method is to trade as much as possible. I want to try to better understand your point of view or your way of conceiving your project. I will recommend movies to watch to arouse your curiosity. I will also give you a certain analytical basis, to better identify the devices and methods to achieve them. The art of cinema is often to play with codes, for that you must first master them. I will try to teach you to take a step back from your own project and to accept an outside opinion.
Regarding video editing, my method is to take examples of short films / audiovisual projects, and put yourself into practice. Editing certainly needs a little theory, but it can be learned above all by practicing. So I will teach you certain methods and certain precepts to have to master. I will mainly follow your project (s).

A History of Italian Cinema: from Silent Film, to Neorealism, Auteur Cinema, and Contemporary FilmThe history of Italian cinema is rich, vibrant and full of surprises. In this class, we will undertake a unique journey from its origins, with the establishment of Italian Silent Film and the so-called Golden Era, throughout the many developments and discoveries of the twentieth century, and all the way to what is Italian Cinema today. We will discuss and analyse films that played a remarkable role in shaping modern cinema: from the school of Neorealism to the auteur tradition of film directors such as Fellini, Antonioni, Visconti, Bertolucci, and many more. We will learn the language of cinema and discover a new way to unlock the meaning and artistry of filmmaking.

Photography classes, Photoshop and Lightroom for all levels.Photography is nowadays spent on something more than the act of taking the picture only. It is thus necessary to master a whole range of computer tools in order to obtain the desired results.
I offer you photography classes, as well as everything that is post-production on the computer (photoshop, lightroom, etc.) to help you progress quickly in the field of photography.
For my part, I have been a photographer for almost 7 years. During this period I worked many photography jobs, through photoshoots, concerts, parties, and much more. What excites me the most is usually travel photography (mountains, nature, cities), as well as portraits.
