hi

My name is Katerina

I am a photographer based in Athens, Greece.

I studied photography at the University of West Attica, Department of Photography and Audiovisual Arts.

For several years I worked on advertising and portrait photography, and I became acquainted with image processing on a Power Mac G3 with Adobe Photoshop 4!

Later on, I taught Photoshop at photography schools and at the same time focused on editing.

Currently, I work with fashion and advertising photographers, photojournalists and mainly with art photographers and visual artists, participating in the creative process of their art works that are presented in art galleries, books and museums in Greece and abroad.

I continuously keep myself up-to-date, learn and enrich my knowledge, using the newest software and cutting edge technologies, making sure that I will satisfy all my clients’ highest requirements.

“But there are, if only rarely, men who would rather perish than work without any pleasure in their work. They are choosy, hard to satisfy, and do not care for ample rewards, if the work itself is not the reward of rewards. Artists and contemplative men of all kinds belong to this rare breed.”

Friedrich Nietzsche
