Love of life and photography

Monday, June 1, 2009

Tatjana Alvegaard: Oslo and Kansas City, Europe and USA; Tatjana has never lived in one place for very long. her mom served in the Norwegian foreign service, so Tatjana has lived in Moscow,Oslo, Washington DC, Vienna, Jerusalem, Mexico City, Santa Barbara and Kansas City. Fluent in several languages, Tatjana has always been inspired by people, and the cultural mix around her - whether that happens down the street, in another country, or another continent. Wherever Tatjana finds herself, she will be fully engaged in the moment. Her photographs reflect a unique combination of aesthetic spontaneity and technical profeciency which brings out the very best in her subjects. "photography is a way of life for me. i love the opportunity to engage with people and let my images tell their story. It is how I live, not what I do."
