Valentin ‘tjk’ Kulakov, photographer from Russia

born: 21 April 1986

I have been doing photography since 2003. First cam I had was a Nikon Coolpix 885. My perception of photography as an art developed ever since. Used to photograph at various Moscow clubs. ‘The virtu’ never waned; certain knowledge made it even worse – I would get even more interested in photography than ever. I call myself ‘an advanced self-teaching-amateur’.

experience:

I’ve been involved in advertising, web design and development, event management but it all was in a sense of hobbies (my professional aspiration is marketing, in particular – branding). My photo and design materials were used in print and digital projects like CDs, packaging, flayers, web-sites and blogs, though I was never really taught how to do this and that, it all came by itself. I had private photography exhibitions and, one day, there will definitely be something bigger and public.
