Portraits of the Romanian Olympic Team for the Paris Olympics 2024

In 2024, I had the privilege of being invited by the Romanian Olympic and Sports Committee to photograph the Romanian Olympic Team in their official parade uniforms for the Paris 2024 Olympic Games. The photographs were subsequently featured in official press releases and in a public relations campaign initiated by the Committee on that occasion.

"Project 112"

I photographed "Project 112" in 2009 as part of a social campaign against domestic violence. The team and I worked on the project selected 24 male celebrities in Romania and put them in similar visual situations as the real victims. We chose men because they are the usual aggressors, statistically speaking, and we wanted to show them, through some influential male leaders, how it feels to be a victim.
We exhibited the project at various shows in Bucharest, Iași, Timișoara, Cluj, and Suceava from 2009 to 2014.

Mercedes Bucharest Fashion Week 2024 - promo images

In 2024, I had the opportunity to produce photographic and video content for the first edition of Mercedes-Benz Bucharest Fashion Week. Here are some images featuring the fashion designers invited to participate in the event, along with their creations. The photographs were published on the official festival channel as well as on the social media accounts of sponsors and designers.

“Love That Breaks Down Walls”

In 2023, I was invited to create a series of portraits for a social campaign initiated by the Community Development Agency “Împreună.” The project highlights remarkable Roma individuals who have succeeded in life despite the strong stigmas attached to their ethnic identity. Their stories emphasize that success is rarely solitary—it often comes with the support of loved ones. For each portrait, the subjects chose to be photographed alongside people who had profoundly influenced their lives, such as parents, siblings, mentors, partners, or close friends.

These images became the exhibition “Love That Breaks Down Walls”, which was presented at the National Theatre in Bucharest and shown at festivals and cultural hubs throughout 2023. It was also showcased at a special event at the residence of the British Ambassador to Romania.

DOR Magazine - "100 for Romania's tomorrow".

One hundred portraits I created for DOR Magazine as part of a special project curated by the magazine's editorial team, featuring 100 individuals whom the editors believe will shape Romania's future. The project was published in the magazine throughout 2018 and showcased in a large exhibition in Bucharest in December 2018.

Ejobs - We Are HR Magazine - "Office View" series.

From 2017 to 2020, We Are HR magazine published a series of interviews under the title Office View, and I was chosen to portray all the people involved—a series that depicts professions and occupations in Romania today.
