I am Pasha Vrzhesch. I was born in 1984 in Dzhankoy. Now, I am living and working in Kyiv, Ukraine. I started as art director 4 years ago, in the meantime I met the photography world: cameras, lights stands and gadgets.
I decided to shoot about 2 years ago. Basically, it's my personal projects - free of clients, deadlines and the routine common for commercial photo. I like that I can spend the whole day looking at an object of my shooting, but don't making a single picture. It's my project. Definitely. But I am still fulltime art director in the agency and I love it much. It helps me accumulate my skills and ideas from different fields to realize them in photography as well. For now, I have many national and international awards and have been named one of the "200 Best Ad Photographers Worldwide" by Luerzer's Archive.
