About
Later, I ventured into documentary photography, with several portfolios about refugees and internally displaced people (IDP) in the South Caucasus. I have published in several renowned photography, alpinism and skiing magazines, and won four Black & White Magazine Merit Awards.
I currently pursue a Ph.D. in urban form, mobility and CO2 emissions at NTNU Trondheim, and also work as certified ACMG (Association of Canadian Mountain Guides) Ski Guide and CAA Level 3 avalanche technician. (>>www.ps-avalanche-consulting.com)
Gear
I use a mix of analog and digital cameras. The main cameras used for the majority of my photography were a Contax T3 and Sigma DP2, for recent work I also used a 1st gen Leica Monochrom and Contax T. I am currently an ambassador for Voigtländer lenses, which I pair with the Monochrom.
